· Hole KKME 1-6 is inclined at 60 degrees and has a planned down-hole target depth of 500m to the upper side of a conductive body modelled from geophysical survey data.

 

· This second drill collar is located in the project's Tshepo (Hope) Central Target Area, approximately 20km west-southwest of the programme's first drill hole KKME 1-14 and along strike on the shear zone interpreted as the Molopo Farms Complex Feeder Zone.

 

· The Tshepo (Hope) Central Target Area lies within the centre of the interpreted feeder zone inside the near-surface sub-crop of the Molopo Farms Complex in Licence PL311/2016.

 

· An analysis of data from agricultural water boreholes in the vicinity shows that serpentinite ultramafic units can be expected directly under the Kalahari cover in this area.
