Symbol Mining commenced Induced Polarisation (IP) ground geophysical survey at its Macy Mine site, Benue State, recording encouraging initial results.
“We are extremely encouraged to see high-quality targets appearing very early in the programme in and around the Macy Mine,” Tim Wither, CEO, Symbol Mining Limited, said.
The geophysical survey, contracted to SAGAX Afrique SA, aims at “directly targeting sphalerite mineralisation around the Macy Mine in Benue,” Wither said.
Initially unaware of the strike spanning 250m length underneath, the company will develop a drill mechanism to deal with the strike in the future.
“We will be developing a drill programme in the near future to test the 250m strike length north of the Macy Pit and the unusual chargeable unit, which has been observed below the pit area that we were previously unaware of,” Wither said.
Recall that Symbol Mining exported its 10 containers’ shipment in December 2018, just a month after commencing Macy Mine project in Benue.
Symbol Mining is an Australian company currently operating in Benue State through its subsidiary company, Imperial Joint Venture.
