Konahiri North and South Overview

​

The Konahiri North (391 km²) and Konahiri South (354 km²) Applications are situated in the central portion of the NNW-trending Kotiola Marabadrassa Birimian Greenstone Belt, in central Côte d’Ivoire. This belt is renowned for hosting significant gold deposits, including Teranga’s +4Moz Wahgnion Operation to the north in Burkina Faso and Tietto’s 2.2Moz Abujar deposit to the south.

Key Highlights
Underexplored Area The Konahiri portion of the belt remains largely underexplored, offering significant potential for new discoveries.

Geological Composition The region is believed to be largely underlain by deformed mafic and intermediate metavolcanic, metasedimentary, and intrusive units.
 

Artisanal Gold Deposits Numerous artisanal gold workings are found both within and adjacent to the permits, indicating the presence of gold mineralization in the area.

Greenfields Exploration Potential
The three applications cover highly prospective areas, offering outstanding greenfields exploration opportunities in proven gold-bearing regions.

Encouraging Results
Surficial Lag Sampling  An 18 km long anomaly has been identified, demonstrating strong gold prospectivity across the applications.

High-Grade Potential Peak sample assay results have reached 1.18 g/t Au, which is considered extremely high-grade for lag sampling—a promising indicator for future resource discovery.

Next steps
Our primary focus continues to be on the Didievi Project, where we are committed to unlocking its full potential. However, given the exceptional prospectivity of the Konahiri North and South Applications, we remain highly motivated to advance this exciting opportunity. With its promising geological setting and considerable exploration upside, we are dedicated to advancing Konahiri as resources allow. Notably, we aim to execute this with a low-cost, efficient exploration strategy, ensuring that we maximize shareholder value while minimizing financial risk.

2025 activities

Detailed Geological Mapping and Sampling
Conduct further geological mapping across both the Konahiri North and South areas to better understand structural controls and lithological features.
Expand on surficial lag sampling and soil sampling to further define gold anomalies, particularly focusing on the 18 km long anomaly identified in earlier sampling.

Geophysical Surveys
Conduct geophysical surveys (such as IP – Induced Polarization, Magnetics, or EM – Electromagnetic) to gain more insight into subsurface structures to indicate zones of gold mineralization.

Small Drilling Program
A exploration drill program to test the bedrock source of the gold anomalies identified in the surficial sampling.
