Project Overview
Ibaera’s Black Volta Gold Project is one of the largest gold exploration positions held outside of major miners in Ghana with ~934 km2 of secured land position (mining and exploration licences). A key advantage of the Black Volta Mine development is its simplicity.
FULLY PERMITTED CONSTRUCTION READY
Gold project in North-West Ghana
SIGNIFICANT LAND PACKAGE HELD THROUGH 12 LICENCES
- ~934 km2 of granted mining and exploration licences in Ghana
- One of the largest licence areas held outside of major miners
CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE NEARBY AND ALREADY IN PLACE
- Major roads, water supply and ~40% renewable grid power already to the gate
DEFINITIVE FEASIBILITY STUDY UPDATED IN OCTOBER 2021
- 163 koz p.a. for the first 5 years, 148 koz p.a for the first 9 years, 11 year mine life
WELL DEFINED AND UNDERSTOOD GEOLOGY
- 1.37 million ounce reserve, 2.8 million ounce resource
TWO MAJOR OPEN CUT MINING PITS
IDENTIFIED ORGANIC GROWTH
- Multiple additional exploration targets within the enormous licence area
- Strong gold anomaly north of Bepkong (> 8 km strike) much larger than area of currently known deposits
- Potential for extension at depth: current depth of drilling very shallow compared to similar deposits – minimal drilling below 300 m at Kunche – major potential at depth
WORLD CLASS LOCATION
- Low risk, established world class mining jurisdiction
