Assay unveils copper-gold anomalies at Mpanda project in Tanzania

Assay from Mpanda project in Tanzania have confirmed anomalous copper-gold targets. Resource Mining Corp who confirmed the report said that the soil sampling program has yielded promising results, delineating nine distinct copper-in-soil anomalies over a 2-kilometer strike length.

Initial assays confirmed two anomalous targets at Stalike and Mpanda Ndogo, aligning with regional northwest-to-southeast and east-to-west enrichment zones. Rock samples from Stalike returned notable results, including 13.58% copper with 3.24 grams per tonne gold, 10.78% copper with 1.41 g/t gold, and 4.12% copper with 0.02 g/t gold.

Potential expansion 

Assays from Mpanda Ndogo also revealed significant coincidental copper-gold anomalies along a 5-kilometer strike length. According to Executive Chairman Asimwe Kabunga the results, highlights the potential for expanding the company’s resource base and creating value for shareholders.

Resource Mining Corporation recently acquired 75% ownership of Tanzanian company Vancouver Mineral Resources, gaining control of the Mpanda and Mbozi copper-gold projects, which encompass 11 granted tenements across 1,580 sq km in the Ubendian Orogenic Belt.

These projects, located within known mineral fields and adjacent to major discoveries and high-grade mines, offer substantial immediate opportunities. Previous field mapping and soil surveys had already identified major geochemical anomalies along key shear zones, further emphasizing the potential of these projects.

Currently, a large-scale sampling program is underway within the project area, with 9,700 samples collected thus far. Additionally, in January, Resource Mining Corporation confirmed the discovery of nickel-copper sulphide mineralization at the Liparamba project in Tanzania. This discovery, made through the first-of-its-kind program in the under-explored region, revealed mineralization between 133 meters and 135 meters downhole. Targets identified at depth from a recent audio-frequency magnetotellurics survey at the Liparamba project are awaiting testing, promising further exploration opportunities in the area.
