PROJECT UPDATE
Annamite Update on Vangma Project – Mapping & Soil Sampling
After signing on 29 March 2024 a Joint Venture Agreement (JVA) with DDC, Annamite has started exploration activities spanning on the 138 sq.km tenement, focusing on uncovering copper, gold, and base metal potentials.
The focus of April’s endeavours is on the northeastern sector of the Vangma tenement, characterized by expansive volcanic formations predominantly composed of andesite.
Regional soil sampling initiative, conducted first on an 800m x 400m grid, commenced in earnest, with a parallel emphasis on regional geological mapping. Preliminary assays utilizing Portable X-ray Fluorescence (pXRF) provided initial insights, supplementing subsequent laboratory analyses by ALS in May. About 106 soil samples were collected, along with 5 duplicates, totalling 111 samples. In tandem with soil sampling, rock chip collection efforts have commenced, with 8 samples procured from the Vangma north-eastern sector.
Looking ahead, the exploration blueprint for May and beyond envisages comprehensive infill sampling, targeting the Boundary and Vangma northwest and northeast initial anomalies. Additionally, a second stage of regional soil sampling with 800m x 400m grid is slated, covering the middle swath of the Vangma tenement.
With an eye on preliminary soil anomalies and geological mapping outcomes, Annamite’s exploration team remains poised to unveil potential mineralization targets in the ensuing months in Vangma.
