Pangolin Diamonds Corp. (TSXV:PAN) announced the completion of a detailed aeromagnetic and radiometric survey over its Botswana-based Jwaneng South project, noting that “multiple large aeromagnetic anomolies commonly associated with kimberlites” were identified.

According to the press release, the findings include:

  • Several large aeromagnetic anomalies commonly associated with kimberlite intrusions occurring within the project area.
  • A 1.4 km diameter geobotanical anomaly, identified as “GK6”, is directly associated with an aeromagnetic anomaly. The geobotanical anomaly over GK6 is similar to that associated with the 350m diameter Orapa BK3 kimberlite.
  • An isolated gravity low over the eastern part of GK6 aeromagnetic anomaly is similar to gravity lows associated with the nearby Jwaneng Mine kimberlites and other kimberlites in this field.
  • Enzyme-leach trace element results are consistent with orientation trace element results over known diamondiferous kimberlites from the Jwaneng kimberlite field. The results come from an independent analysis of samples by Activation Laboratories Ltd. of Ancaster, Ont.
  • The discovery of kimberlite indicator garnets in soil samples.
