Mokambo North (AfricanEagle JV) - Zambian Copperbelt (sitios de interés)

RESOURCE BASE  -  MOKAMBO NORTH  -  (GEOMIN 1976)

3.8Mt at 1.7% Cu  

 

STATUS  -  DORMANT

 

It was only possible to complete one diamond drill hole at Mokambo North, due to delays in obtaining environmental permitting. Past exploration in this area indicated a deposit of 3.8Mt at 1.7% copper, again pre-JORC standard. The 2008 drill hole (MND1) intersected a substantial zone of mineralisation including 15m at 2.44% copper at a depth of 162 vertical metres. The zone is open along strike and up and down dip. The mineralisation comprises largely malachite and chalcocite and while most is again hosted by the greywacke at the top of the Lower Road and in underlying quartzites, there is also significant mineralisation within a 'Middle Conglomerate' unit.
