JV partner sought for diamond mine in Namibia

Three businessmen acquired a diamond mine in the south of Namibia along the Orange River where you find the best gem quality diamonds in the world. 

This mine has a valid mining license and management will be able to renew the license for 10 years. Management has the sole mandate on this mine from the liquidators. 

Management has all the reports and intelligence on the mine. 

Management also has access to all the trained personnel that will be needed on this mine. 

The owners need to put up a new plant on the mine, because the old plant is too small and out of order. 

The owners have the knowhow to revamp the mine and to get it into full production. 

Capital is needed to do this and therefore the management is looking for a joint venture partner to go with us into a joint venture.

The partners will receive 70% ownership of the newly registered company, mine, equipment and license. 

Dividends will also be paid out 70/30 after all capital was paid back to the funders. 

We will be able to manage the mine and the production. We can be in full production within 3 months after receiving the funds. We have a detailed business plan and a 5 year budget plan on all income and expenses. We would welcome it if interested parties can visit us and the mining area for their own account. 


Should you need more info or have any questions you are welcome to contact Leon Nienaber on lnienaber @ live.com

About the region:

In 2005 Namibian diamond production amounted to an estimated US$ 0.9 Billion about 7% of the global contribution. In carat terms Namibia produces about 98% of gem quality diamonds, making it one of the world's largest producers of gem quality diamonds. Namibia produced a total of 1.4 Mct in 2003. In 2003 it was estimated that onshore operations account for about 55% of production and offshore operations for 45% of production.

It is estimated that over 100 Mct have been produced since mining began in 1908. Diamonds are mined along ancient river terraces along the banks of the Orange River, paleo beach deposits along the south western and western coast of Namibia, as well as from marine deposits situated offshore.

Geological reports of the area have been carried out in the past which indicate that the three blocks have inferred reserves of 9.5 million tonnes of diamondiferous deposits. In addition the paleo areas in blocks 10, 11 and 12 have inferred reserves of another 7 million tonnes. The reports suggest that there are between 321,250 and 477,500 cts of diamonds to be extracted from the three blocks.

Gold and coltan mine in the D.R.C. seeks investor


A gold and coltan mine in the D.R.C. in the province of Katanga, district of TANGANIKA (kalemie) is looking for a company that has top of the range equipment that can extract gold from the ground. The mine is situated about 160km from Kalemie and the route is very accessible.

 Production has been very low due to a lack of professional equipment needed to find the gold; past ventures of gold extraction were based on guessing where to dig instead of using professional detectors that can give precise indications on where the gold is underground.
However, gold has been found within 1m dept of soil digging indicating that with the right equipment production can be profitable. 

The mine is looking for investors with adequate equipment which will be vital in the extraction of the above mentioned mineral; the land in question is about 30 km square in size. 

Apart from the above mentioned, the company has trees that are 5m in height, which could be manufactured and processed into black wood. The company wishes to formalise collaboration with the signature of a contract of partnership that will also constitute the legal base of this collaboration and aim to protect the security of the interests of the two parties.

Platfields CEO gets seat on Mineral Resources Ministers’ Platinum Task Team


Bongani Mbindwane, CEO of Platfields Ltd was allocated a seat on the minister's platinum task team, under the auspices of MIGDETT.

The PTT is a technical working group that will develop and recommend to the Minister short, medium and long term proposals to place platinum in a growth trajectory, whilst attempting to save thousands of jobs now on the line due to the platinum slump. 

This task team is said to look into the challenges facing platinum miners with a view to instil a rescue and sustainability plan for the platinum sector.

The Honourable Minister of Mineral Resources, Susan Shabangu, expressed her heartened request to Mbindwane to join the team after the two shared various correspondences on the matter.

Mbindwane is a strong advocate of maintaining the current tax regime in mining and promoting the assistance by State of junior explorers as is in other mining economies. 

Mbindwane also came out strongly against the ANC's proposal document called SIMS, saying, "SIMS is drafted with a punitive mindset and looks at mining business as sin business needing sin taxes".

Iron ore mine for outright sale in Nigeria

My company is looking for serious parties that can come in and invest in the outright purchase of our iron ore mine in Nigeria.

Prefeasibility study and Exploration license are in place.

It is located on a site of about 45 square kilometers in Nasarawa state, Nigeria.

The iron in deposits is above 60%, and the recovery rate is high.

Mineralogy of the Mine:

Magnetite

Magnetite constitutes a significant portion of the ore body. At the present level of excavation, it appears to be the zone separating the main ore Hematite from the wall rock.
The depth of weathering in the area indicates that the terrain is likely to be underlain by Schists. Schists is therefore likely to constitute the wall rock

Freshly exposed Magnetite layers contain the micaceous variety of the mineral.
It is in form of flakes having metallic lustre in addition to a greenish grey tarnished surface. In sections of the exposure, there are two less common varieties, brownish dust and pebbles as well as a rare massive greyish to dark ore having faintly discernible layering. The micaceous variety often contains streaks of reddish Hematite. When the Hematite content is high, the ore loses its magnetic property. At present, Magnetite layers are discarded treated as a gangue.

Hematite

This mineral is the ore mineral in the mine. It appears in two forms, The massive dark grey to black variety which forms the core of the deposit.
 It is nonmagnetic and the ore body has a steep dip varying between 45 degree and near vertical dips. The second is the reddish coloured variety often found associated with Magnetite.

Pyrite

This mineral is very rare in the present workings. It is found with the massive dark variety of Hematite. The mineral occurs as yellow patches in the Hematite.

Chlorite

Minor Chlorite mineralization is associated with the Magnetite in a few sections of the mine.
The mineral is deposited in the spaces between layers of Magnetite.

Ore Texture  

 The ore minerals are generally fine textured.
Even the massive Hematite has a grain size around 1mm across while the Magnetite has a finer texture making the grains almost microscopic in size

Genetic Model

The Mada iron ore deposit does not conform to the classic BIF model. It is almost free of Chert, there is hardly any sign of banding and it is doubtful if it is a chemical rock. Another genetic model for its genesis will have to be worked out.

Resources of Ore

Considering the limited size of the studied area, evaluation of resource is not likely to be reliable. The lowest level of knowledge in the international method of evaluation is INFERRED. This has an error margin of ±50%.

SG of 5.0

Inferred Resource is 2,016,000,000 metric tons

Accessibility

The mine site is located about 7 km east of a rail line. In addition, there is an earth road motorable all the year round running from the mine to the main surfaced road to Nassarawa Egon.

Size

Its located on over 45 km stretch of land.

- Zone C: 47.42%

In anticipation of receiving more information on other sites, please kindly send us your feedback on these analysis. We are waiting for other grade analysis, we have other Zinc and Copper mines sites.

The Zinc mine site, zone 1 with 20.53%, will be operated after 3 months, however, the Zinc mine site, zone 3, with 35%, will be operated when Ramadan ends up, after a maximum of 2 months from now. We need to add more material: excavator and explosive to reach 2000 to 3000 Tons per Month. In the meantime, we will manage crushing.

35% is a grade of selective samples, other samples taken by grooving method will be analyzed. The mines sites are in land conservation.
