Overview
The company’s principal activity is the exploration of its highly prospective uranium projects in mid central Namibia. Namibia has a long history of exploration and mining of uranium and is currently the world’s fifth largest producer of uranium, mostly from Rio Tinto’s Rossing Mine.
The company has two highly prospective uranium projects:
Erongo Granites project, which covers 415 sq kms. The Company is targeting intrusive style granite-hosted uranium deposits. Drilling to date has confirmed a main zone of uranium mineralization over an area of 1,000 metres by 1,000 metres. The uranium mineralization includes an area of higher grade mineralisation covering 600 metres by 300 metres.
Spitskoppe project, which covers 505 sq kms. The Company is targeting secondary calcrete-hosted mineralisation as well as granite-hosted mineralization.
The company also has an interest in a highly prospective project (covering 2,000 sq kms) located in south west Namibia.
Namibia has a progressive mining regime with strong government support. There is little sovereign risk and no native title. Namibia’s Mining Act is based on the Canadian model. The country has good existing infrastructure that helps result in fast lead times for project development.
