The Kabba Bunu Project
The Kabba Bunu licensed site is a short distance from the capital of Nigeria and measures approximately 80 km² and is leased for 99 years from the local community. The area was identified by Russian geological surveys in the mid-1970s to have high potential for gold mineralization. Initial exploration results found 93% gold content and also contains elevated contents of Silver, Copper, Molybdenum, Wolframite and Lead/Zinc. The area has been historically impacted by significant displacement as a result of a rock-mass movement which typically results in the geomorphology of substantial mineralization. Further geological investigations will be required to ground truth this. Seven potentially mineralized bodies (quartz reef formations) identified within the area, with one body dimensioning 4.5km on strike mineralization with a width that varies between 200-900m, covering an area of 3.5 km2. Gold-bearing sand confined to the alluvial deposits in the central parts of the licensed area was identified. Alluvial deposits containing an estimated 1,000kg Au identified (35,000 ounces @ average 0.5g/t).
