Project Geology

The Samaradougou permit, located in the northeastern Banfora Greenstone Belt, features a mix of volcano-sedimentary and clastic rocks in the northwest, including sandstones and phyllite, with mafic volcanic rocks in the central region. Granitic formations are prominent in the southeast. The rock formations have a NE-SW orientation with a steep southeast dip.

Style of Mineralisation
01

Orogenic gold in the Banfora Greenstone Belt, controlled by a shear zone.

02

Mineralization in brittle-ductile zones (argillites, tuffs) and brittle fractures (diorites).

03

Mineralised bodies strikes NE-SW to NNE-SSW, dip ~50° SE-ESE.

04

1.2 km Strike length of mineralisation and open at north and south end.

05

Indicators: Silicification, pyrite, multi-phase quartz veins.

06

Alterations: Quartz-carbonate, chlorite, epidote, sericite, hematite, limonite.
