Remember in the Spring of 2024 when Robert Friedland said...
"... There is much more to come this year at Kamoa-Kakula, without even mentioning the new deposits we are unearthing in the Western Forelands.”
Ivanhoe’s DRC exploration group is targeting Kamoa-Kakula-style copper mineralization through a regional exploration and drilling program on its Western Foreland exploration licences.
The 21 licences in the Western Foreland land package cover a combined area of approximately 1,808 square kilometres to the north, south and west of the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex.
The total area of the land package has been reduced from 2,407 square kilometres due to regulatory reductions as 10 exploration licences matured, coming to the end of their first holding period. 50% of these licences were dropped. Four of licences are under an earn-in right to increase Ivanhoe ownership by funding ongoing exploration activities.
Exploration models that successfully led to the discoveries of Kakula, Kakula West, and the Kamoa North Bonanza Zone on the Kamoa-Kakula joint-venture mining licence, as well as the recently announced Makoko and Kiala deposits on the Western Foreland are being applied to the extensive land package by the exploration team responsible for the previous discoveries.
We ain't seen nothin' yet!!!
