![]() ![]() We own four previous operating gold mines on 746 square kms of leases and concessions located along the prolific Ashanti and Asankrangwa gold belts in Ghana. Kubi, our lead project, is located just 15 km south of the major AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi mine - the largest underground mining complex in West Africa. The Fraser Institute (2008) has rated Ghana as the #2 most politically stable country in Africa after Botswana. It is also the #2 gold producer in Africa after South Africa, with major mines in production by Goldfields, Newmont, AngloGold Ashanti, and Golden Star. At Kubi, multiple gold resource studies have been conducted over the years, with the most recent NI 43-101 compliant report by Golder Associates Ltd. in Aug. 2007. Kubi Preliminary Assessment Report ![]() Based on this assessment, Golder has recommended that PMI Gold advance the project to a full feasibility study for production of up to 50,000 ounces of gold per year. Please note that the assessment is based on mineral resources that are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Sectional analysis by PMI Gold, which is consistent with previous historical resource models, has confirmed that a significant proportion of the gold is contained within a central 'high grade' zone located within 500 metres of the surface. We are currently assessing mining this high grade core via a decline access from a bench in the old pit, and toll milling at nearby available mills. Kubi has a 20-year mining lease issued and full EIS were completed in 2005 prior to the previous surface mining. Further information will be released as it becomes available. In May 2009, PMI Gold commenced a drill program at Kubi designed to discover additional gold resources. Drilling will test a series of airborne geophysical (EM) targets outlined in 1995. In addition to Kubi, PMI Gold is focused on further developing our Obotan Gold project and the exploration of the balance of our concessions. The extent and timing on further development is subject to the availability of additional funding. |
