Snapshot
Operations
Products and/or services of Asara Resources
- Gold Exploration: Systematic reverse circulation and diamond core drilling campaigns across central West African concessions to define shallow oxide gold deposits, delineate structural extensions, and calculate updated mineral resource estimates under international reporting codes.
- Resource Delineation: Advanced geological modeling and multi-element assay analysis targeting shear-hosted mineralized zones within prolific Birimian greenstone belts, quantifying tonnage and grade profiles for near-surface, open-pit constrained mineral deposits.
- Auger Drilling: Grid-based auger drilling and deep geochemical sampling programs covering extensive regional permit areas to penetrate saprolite cover, map bedrock geochemistry, and identify prioritized drill-ready mineralized targets.
- Metallurgical Testing: Comprehensive bottle roll leach, column leach, and comminution testwork on composite oxide and fresh rock drill samples to establish gold recovery rates and optimized processing parameters for heap leach or carbon-in-leach flowsheets.
- Environmental Studies: Systematic hydrological monitoring, baseline flora and fauna evaluations, and community engagement initiatives conducted across active exploration tenements to fulfill regulatory compliance requirements and support environmental permit approvals.
- Regional Reconnaissance: Airborne magnetic and radiometric interpretation, ground geophysical surveying, and geological structural mapping across peripheral exploration licenses to identify prospective shear corridors and intrusives within underlying gold-bearing rock formations.
