Marula Mining (AQSE: MARU A2X: MAR), an African-focused mining and development company, is pleased to provide an update on ongoing mining operations at the Kinusi Copper Mine ("Kinusi") in the Mpwapwa District of Tanzania's Dodoma Region, ahead of the planned first copper sales this week by its local partner Takela Mining Tanzania Limited ("Takela").
Over the past week, mining operations at the No. 4 Open Pit at Kinusi, have been extended along strike by a further 200 metres ("m") taking the open pit to over 500m in length. Mining activities are also set to commence later this month at the No. 3 Open Pit. Removal of shallow overburden and waste material at the No. 4 Open Pit has allowed Takela's technical management team to visually identify the continuation of the copper mineralisation. Along the full length of the 200m extension of the No. 4 Open Pit Mine, malachite, azurite and cuprite copper mineralisation is visible in an approximately 2m thick vein north from ongoing open-pit mining activities. Upon visible inspection of the copper mineralisation, Takela's technical management team have assessed the copper mineralisation as being potentially high-grade and potentially some of the highest-grade copper mineralisation they have observed at Kinusi to date. The Company emphasises that laboratory assays of the samples will be required to confirm the range of copper ore grades visually identified.
Mining operations are ongoing and Takela is continuing to stockpile the copper ores, ahead of their planned copper concentrate trial shipments and sales which are scheduled to commence this week.
Further updates on the transportation of the copper concentrates and initial sales will be made in due course.
