EXPLORATION PROJECTS
ZMEL has 24 Exploration licences targeting diversified commodities in some of the highest grade mineral rich provinces of Zambia. Our exciting portfolio of licences are targeting towards a wide range of commodities e.g. Copper, Tin, Gold, Phosphate, Gemstone. This reflects our purpose statement of ethically sourcing and processing the mineral commodities that will benefit the overall improvement of day-to-day human life. We are dedicated in teaming up with our local communities to transform vast natural resources into sustainable growth of the human civilisation.
Zambia is blessed with the best Geological set up for mineralisation of Copper- Cobalt, Gold, Emerald, Limestone, Manganese, Phosphate, Tin and many more. Apart from Traditional Copper and Cobalt, the rest of the commodities are very less explored. Therefore, with the aim of exploring the vast unexplored territories in Zambia, Zumran has targeted licences in most of the renowned Geological locations including the Central African Copperbelt (CACB), Mwambeshi Zone (MSZ), Ndola Rural Emerald Restricted Area (NRERA), Choma Tin Belt (CTB) and Mporokoso Basin (MB).
Zumran has employed a very strong and experienced exploration team committed to systematically exploring and maximising the value of our portfolio and the team have conducted a comprehensive Desktop Study on all of the licences. A detailed report for each of the licences were created. Furthermore, all licences were prioritised primarily on the basis of target commodity, geological potential for mineralisation, type of mineralisation, value.
Recently Zumran has commenced physical exploration on our Falcon and Eagle projects. These two projects are targeted for Gold exploration at Mwambeshi Shear Zone are – a location with great promise. The work has commenced with reconnaissance geological mapping, outcrop sampling, stream sediment sampling and orientation soil sampling. Zumran’s passionate team is excited about the Falcon Project as it has some of the best shear zones with Altered Mica Schist that usually hosts auriferous quartz veins. These shear zones are even very prominently visible in Satellite imageries also.
Similarly our Alpaca Project is located in Mporokoso Basin area that has got striking geological similarities with Witwatersand basin that host the best Gold deposit of the world. This area of Zambia is very little explored although past work and current artisanal activities indicate a very high potential for Gold with also a potential for Uranium and diamond mineralisation.
