Highlights of the survey include:
There are two prominent domains of identifiable artisanal gold mining;
North of Nyakagwe Hill
Between Nyakagwe Hill and the Bulyanhulu River
Within each of these domains there are at least three distinct orientations of gold mineralized structures;
060-075°, northeast-southwest
290-315°, northwest-southeast
080-115°, east-west.
Tembo Gold Corp, CEO, David Scott, said:
We are very excited by the results of the LIDAR survey on our Tembo Gold Property as we are now able to detect significantly more artisanal workings than initially identified. These artisanal workings run along the same structures identified by our airborne geophysical surveys and provide us with greater confidence that structures contain gold. We now have a better understanding and definition of the extent of artisanal mining activity within the property boundary, and I look forward to testing these many structures with drilling in the near future.
