Bouro-Mandala diamond project, Guinea
Name of the project and location
Bouro-Mandala diamond project, Guinea.
Project description
SearchGold Resources and Mano River Resources have signed a joint-venture (JV) agreement to establish a commercial diamond mine exploiting the very high-grade Bouro kimberlite dykes of Mano, and the high-grade Mandala alluvial-diamond deposits of SearchGold.
The JV’s objectives are to accelerate the development of the project, and resume mining activities through the installation of a dense media-separation diamond-treatment plant, with the capacity to treat both alluvial and the bulk samples from the kimberlites.
Systematic exploration of the Ouria permit is intended to increase the known resources.
