North River Mozambique project5 Oct 2009 17:54
In July North River agreed to acquire OMS's Mozambique Gold and Uranium Projects which comprise 32 licences covering 628,400 Ha in five project areas, details as follows:
1.Castro Project - 3 Licences, 54,580 Ha, located 30km north west of Tete. Targets, uranium, gold, coal. The Castro Project area contains a number of historic uranium workings and the significant Inatobue radiometric target developed by Omegacorp in 2006. Inatobue is the biggest radiometric anomaly in the area and is located adjacent to the previously producing Castro mine. The Boa Viseau gold anomaly is located in the Castro Project area. Soil sampling completed by OMS defined a continuous pattern over 2,400 metres including peak values of 2,090 ppm Au, 1,915ppm Au and 1,810 ppm Au. The Rio Mafu coal prospect contains three Lignitic to Sub-Bitumous coal units. Total tonnage potential is thought to be under 20Mt.
2.Mucumbura Project - 2 Licences, 27,560 Ha, located 300 km due west of Tete. Targets, uranium
3.Murrupula Project - 3 Licences, 61,280 Ha, located 600 km due east of Tete. Targets, uranium, precious and base metals.
4.Niassa Project - 21 Licences, 424,060 Ha, located northen Mozambique to the east of lake Malawi. Targets, uranium, gold, base metals.
5.Zumbu Project - 3 Licences, 60,920 Ha, located 350 km due west of Tete. Targets uranium, coal and precious metals.
Sounds really quite familiar in that all projects have a Uranium aspect to them.
