MOD finds copper deposits

The Mahumo Deposit is 2.5 kilometres long so there may be some scale to the project. The company said in a statement that the work on the prospect could signal up to 25 kilometres of the copper prospective contact may have been folded into a structurally favourable site.

The review of the results was identified after applying a 1.5 percent copper cut-off to numerous previous diamond drill hole intersections. 

The new interpretation suggests potential exists for the two zones to be joined below the shallower ‘Central Zone’. 
 Botswana currently has three operating copper mines with the next one expected to be opened in Gantsi in 2017.
