At the nearby Misundu target, the Company drilled three diamond drill holes and nine percussion drill holes for a total of almost 2000 metres, before drilling was suspended to await the results of the detailed geochemical survey and other surface surveys. Unexpectedly, the drilling intersected rocks which appear to belong to the Dipeta Formation, within a structurally complex zone. The Dipeta is part of the Upper Roan and is known to host significant copper deposits in neighbouring DRC.

 

Diamond drill hole NDE1 was drilled to a depth of 603m with wedged offsets to define the stratigraphic succession and to gain a better understanding of the structural complexity and mineralisation at Misundu. Mineralisation grading 1.1% copper was intersected in this hole at 58 vertical metres over a width of 7m and further drilling is planned.
