Property: SUWAR
Cantex Mine Development and Vale reported to have collected 1894 soil samples, a satellite image was acquired and detailed geological mapping was conducted over the Suwar area. Ground geophysical surveys included 32 line kilometers of ground magnetics, 15 kilometers of ground gravity and a ground induced polarization (IP) survey covering a 2.5 km by 2.5 km area. The results of this work identified several drill targets. The most significant of these were two IP anomalies. The eastern IP anomaly was modeled to be approximately 800 meters long and between 130 and 250 meters wide. The western anomaly was modeled to be 600 meters long and between 150 and 300 meters wide.
