#LEX has announced the appointment of Shango Solutions, one of South Africaโs leading geological consultancies, to undertake a comprehensive programme aimed at upgrading part of the Kroonstad Projectโs historic independent estimate to JORC (2012) Exploration Target status.
This is a significant technical milestone that strengthens the foundations of what could become one of @LexGoldLtd most exciting assets.
Key Highlights
โ
Shango Solutions appointed to lead the programme.
โ
Objective to upgrade part of the existing independent non-code compliant estimate of 6.06Moz to 62.41Moz of gold at grades of 4.96g/t to 11.54g/t towards JORC Exploration Target status.
โ
Historical AngloGold Ashanti exploration data to be reviewed, validated and incorporated.
โ
Creation of a robust, auditable geological database.
โ
Development of a high-confidence 3D geological and structural model.
โ
Preparation of JORC-aligned technical reporting together with a proposed future drilling strategy.
โ
Approximately 16-week work programme now underway.
Why this matters
While the historic estimate cannot currently be reported as a JORC resource or exploration target, this programme is specifically designed to bridge that gap.
Independent geological validation, modern modelling and JORC-compliant reporting significantly enhance technical confidence and provide a much stronger platform for future exploration and drilling decisions.
Located within the world-renowned Witwatersrand Basin, Kroonstad is supported by an extensive historical dataset and has the potential to become an increasingly valuable part of Lexington Goldโs South African portfolio.
This announcement represents another important step in unlocking the long-term value of one of the companyโs most prospective gold projects.
