Item 8.01: Other Items
The company is pleased to provide this update to our shareholders
regarding the status of our business in Guinea, and our development
plans for the three concessions in Ghana.
Guinea:
Mansounia exploration permit was acquired in 2013 and was secured
based on our technical and financial capabilities to obtain a
mining permit. The 2013 exploration permit was near expiration when
acquired and was subsequently renewed for the maximum of four times
permitted by the Guinea Mining Code. In December 2019, the company
submitted its final mining permit proposal to the Ministry of
Mines. The ministry requested, in its discretion, that we provide
evidence of funding to account for 15% of the capital required for
project financing. The company was unable to secure the required
financing during prior to expiration of the final permit extension,
and the permit was withdrawn by decree from the Ministry of Mines.
Although it is our understanding the Ministry of Mines exercises
considerable discretion regarding the extension and revocation of
permits and the grant of mining licenses, the decree to revoke our
exploration permit suggests that our application is no longer under
consideration. With respect to the fate of the project, we
anticipate that we will attempt to renegotiate a position for the
Mansounia project once Guinea reopens its border to international
travel (the country has been inaccessible due to COVID-19)
Currently the a permit for the property has been granted by way of
two exploration licence to Penta Goldfields SARL, a company owned
by our In country manager in Guinea, Mr. Nfamoussa Kaba.
Ghana:
We intend to renew and develop our three concessions in Ghana for
their gold and diamond potential, and to explore the market for
other viable assets. All three licences have expired and require an
estimated USD $100’000. to renew. We are currently in discussions
with with prospective equity investors to finance the renewal
costs, however no agreement has been secured. Nevertheless, in
order to secure necessary financing, we will be required to
increase our authorized capital. The Asamankese, Osenase and
Pramkese concessions are located near Asamankese, Akim Oda and Kade
towns respectively. The concession is dominated by broad pene
plain, dotted with moderate to high hills and remnant of rain
forest. The area is hilly and rugged, running from 180m to 300m in
elevation. Around the licences is the Atewa range about 1050m above
sea level. There are little published records of extensive widely
scattered gold mineralization old pits, shafts and adits, as well
as artisanal gold workings in the concessions. In the mid-sixties,
the Geological Survey Department of Ghana undertook reconnaissance
mapping and soil geochemical survey in the area during which traces
of gold were recorded in panned concentrates of geochemical
samples.
Osenase is in the Birim Central Municipal District. The nearest
town to the project area is the District Capital Akim Oda. This
project has seen limited amount of gold exploration. The concession
was previously held by Cornucopia Resources in the 1990s and was
engaged in potential for a diamond resource. Paramount Mining
Corporation held the concession for almost 6 years with limited
amount of work. The limited work done was focused on diamondiferous
hard rock potential at Atiankama Nkwanta. The presence of diamonds
in what appears to be an in-situ unit exposed by the Francis Pits
at Atiakama Nkwanta provides an opportunity to explain the source
of some of the diamonds in the region. S Two oriented grids were
sampled in 2007 but were never analysed for gold. The samples have
been stored at the Manso camp to be analysed later. No subsequent
work has been carried out to establish gold or diamond potential,
and there is no guarantee that ore is present in economically
significant quantity.
Asamankese is a 150Km2 Prospecting License (PL) in the West Akim
District. The nearest town to the project area is the District
Capital Asamankese. Asamankese was originally part of Osenase under
a reconnaissance licence. In 2006, about 4 soil-oriented grids on
800m x 50m was established and sampled. The samples were stored at
the Manso camp to be analysed later. The samples are still in
storage at the Manso camp. A total of 436 samples representing two
of the gridlines L1600N and L2400N at 800m apart were later on
analysed for gold. The samples were sent to SGS Tarkwa for 2kg BLEG
analysis. Results received were not encouraging for gold, with only
one modest spike of 170 ppb Au, associated with alluvials. A
limited stream sediment program began in November 2008 but could
not be completed due to financial constraints. About 108 stream
sediment samples were collected and panned for visible gold out of
a total 183 planned. No laboratory analysis was carried out. About
80 sample points are still yet to be sampled.
Pramkese is a 66 square kilometres Prospecting License (PL) in the
Kwaebibirim District located in the Birim Diamond Field. The
nearest town to the project area is the District Capital Kade.
Limited reconnaissance work was carried out in 2009 and the licence
was converted to a Prospecting Licence. The exercise concentrated
on the south of the town of Pramkese. Ten (10) alluvial pits were
dug and sampled. The samples collected were panned and hand jigged
for gold and diamond respectively. In the early 90’s, a fair amount
of work was done on the concession for both alluvial gold and
diamond by Basogard. Basogard defined some alluvial gold and
diamond resources which were never investigated.
The company is now in discussions with various potential partners
to explore and define the potential of these concessions, however
no definitive agreements have been reached.
