Red Mountain Mining Limited provided the final results of its maiden 2017 exploration program at the Mukabe-Kasari Cobalt-Copper project in the DRC. The Mukabe-Kasari Cobalt-Copper project area is a greenfields exploration play situated approximately 250 km northwest of Lubumbashi, and about 70 km north of the giant Tenke-Fungerume Copper-Cobalt mine. It comprises 17 artisanal licenses covering approximately 130 km. For further detail on the region and nearby cobalt and copper mines, see the RMX announcement released on 21 March 2017. The Mukabe-Kasari Cobalt-Copper project was considered prospective because of its multiple showings of copper mineralisation and its proximity to major mining localities. The area occupies the slopes of the Katanga Plateau. The bed rock consists of sedimentary strata of the Upper Nguba and Lower Kundelungu Formations which are gently folded in the project area and consist of siltstones, sandstones and calcareous siltstones. Secondary copper-cobalt mineralisation (malachite, azurite, chalcocite), occurring as layer-parallel horizons of disseminated secondary (malachite and azurite) and transitional copper (chalcocite, bornite) mineralisation. Mineralisation was mapped at several locations in the project area. The surface geochemical program was centred around areas of outcropping copper mineralisation and a total of 657 samples were collected across three areas. The samples comprise soil and rock chip samples collected on a 200 by 100 m grid. Soil samples were collected between 30 and 70 cm below the organic rich top soil layer. About 2 kg of bulk material was collected from each sample site. About the same volume of weathered rock was collected where bed rock was at surface. Areas of geochemical sampling (either soil and rock chip sample, depending on sample site), were followed-up by a small number of shallow pits to establish the vertical extent of mineralised horizons, if possible the number of mineralized beds, and the thickness of individual beds. The geochemical results and geological observations strongly suggest that the copper mineralisation occurs as laterally extensive horizons, possibly several kilometres in strike extent if individual occurrences at a similar elevation are connected. The topography of the project area rises to the northwest, suggesting that anomalies at different elevation in an area of sub-horizontal layering are possibly related to different layers of the stratigraphy, possibly indicating multiple layers with mineralisation. The spacing, thickness and grade of these different layers needs to be tested. Drilling will be required to establish the thickness and lateral extent of any mineralisation. These copper results are encouraging as they confirm: The potential for in-situ copper mineralisation, Multiple horizons of stratiform copper mineralisation Laterally extensive anomalism, and regional effective mineralisation system. The results are expected to support the planning of a targeted drill testing campaign to determine the thickness and spacing of the mineralised horizons. However, this will be evaluated in the context of the overall risk profile of the project, pre-season mapping results and the other opportunities that may become available to the company.
