Kenadyr's new leases...
Kenadyr's new leases...I have been doing a bit of DD on the new licenses that $KEN just optioned in the Tien Shan gold belt. Couple points I found interesting and a map showing some of the deposits in the belt...liking this one more and more.
" Dr. Anatoly Gibsher from the Novosibirsk Institute of Geology and Geophysics, a well-known expert on gold deposits within the Asian and Siberian Upper Proterozoic carbonaceous shale formations, was the leader of the geological reconnaissance team. He stated: "The geological setting is very similar to that at Kumtor. Within the licences and extending for many tens of kilometres are intensively altered and pyritized carbonaceous shales which belong to the same formation that hosts the Kumtor deposit." ...........
"The Akbelsuu licence covers all the outcropping favourable black shale units to the west of Kumtor. The area has seen very little exploration work." ...........
"In the northwest of Kyrgyzstan, Kenadyr has acquired the option to the licences surrounding both the Chaarat gold deposit and the Kuru-Tegerek gold deposit (operated by China Gold). The licences also cover the outcropping carbonaceous shales which occur on strike to the east of the Chaarat gold deposit." ...........
"The Ustasai licence covers a large pull-apart (rotated and extended) segment of the Talas Fergana fault, arguably the dominant structural feature of Tien Shan Mountains, with a dextral strike-slip fault displacement of 240 kilometres. In this pull-apart segment covered by the licence, the rocks are intensely altered and bleached with alteration thicknesses of more than 500 metres. A strong airborne potassium anomaly occurs over the alteration zone." ..........
The Kokirim-Bardambot licence The licence covers an area of 342 square kilometres of highly prospective ground where carbonaceous shales outcrop in multiple erosion windows. The rocks in the erosion windows are highly altered and pyritized, yet they were never assayed for gold during the Soviet expeditions. ............
