Tchaga Structures – Vein Orientations
NNE trending, moderate to steep WNW dipping veins
Earlier deformational event = D1 – but gold
mineralization exploits these older structures

vein

2 deposits already identified
Working towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate
Potential exists to grow the deposits further
We can apply new knowledge elsewhere on Napie
Enormous exploration potential along 30km long permit
