Mwana Africa - A New beginning

Makka...NE DRC (near the Ugandan border) is all I know...

There's a sketchy Map on the Web-site with this text




Mwana Africa has a joint venture agreement with Office des Mines d’Or de Kilomoto (commonly referred to as ‘Okimo’) over an exploration property in the North East of the DRC. The joint venture was signed in June 2005.

This 3,000 square kilometres property is in a highly prospective gold province. The project area is 100 km long belt running from Kilomines, adjacent to AngloGold Ashanti to the south, the Government’s Kilo Moto holdings to the north and to the east of ground held by Goldfields. It is also located around the Zani-Kodo gold mine.

Zani project started before independence and reached total production of 572,000 tonnes at 6.5g/t, but was abandoned due to unrest in 1964 during the civil war. Zani’s mineralized zone at the surface is 500m long and up to 30m wide, it consists of silicification in sheared greenstone with gold contained in sulphides. At the time of closure Zani’s sulphide reserve was 352,000 tonnes at 8.15g/t.

Mwana is working on the exploration and development programme to the north, east and south zones of the area.





The inference is that there's plenty of Gold still to be had, (given that there's been solid workings there before.)

However, we don't know what the roads are like, what's left, what the infrastructure is like and given the recent elections how politically stable the area is likely to be.
