Musangila (First Quantum) - Zambian Copperbelt (sitios de interés)

Area

 

Musangila, comprises (of) an 8 kilometer long, greater than 100ppm copper soil anomaly, interpreted to lie on the limb of a major fold structure. Initial RAB drilling, on wide spaced lines, has intersected strongly anomalous copper and cobalt values towards the base of Kalahari cover, which is 5 to 50 metres thick. Copper mineralisation (peak 1.32% copper), is present as malachite and chrysocolla clasts within Kalahari clay, and in quartzite clasts with interstitial disseminations of malachite. High cobalt values, (peak 2.01% cobalt), are associated with black wad, and gossanous fragments with vuggy quartz clasts present towards the base of the cover sequence in most of the holes drilled into the peak of the anomalies.
