\n Delineating graphite mineralization zones using Integrated Geophysical techniques near Morogoro, Tanzania

Country: <\/b>Tanzania\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/b>Region:<\/b> East-Central Africa\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/b>Period: <\/b>2018\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/b>Commodity:<\/b> Graphite.<\/b><\/p>\n

Geophysical investigation was conducted in two conjugate graphite concession totalling about 45<\/b> sq. km., of which about 50<\/b>-hectare area in these prospects were evaluated. Objective of the assessment in different areas was to gather a holistic view of the presence of graphite in a complex geological setting, one that is not visible on the surface in totality. The geological inputs suggested presence of dolomite & marble along with Proterozoic granulite facies rocks & biotite gneisses. Mineralization is observed to be strata bound in schistose form with these formations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Objective of the program were meted employing two methods of survey included in the scope of work as,\u00a0<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Geophysical investigation by mean of Self-Potential method based on response of natural current & generating anomaly response over more conductive zones, the graphite bodies being highly conductive.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  2. Identify the potential graphite bearing area based on processing & interpretation of SP survey.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  3. 2D Electrical Imaging (Resistivity & IP) across the identified anomaly zones to interpret nature of the conductivity profile in the sub-surface.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    SP method of survey assisted in identifying potential mineralization zone based on which blocks were identified for further investigation; in the process, SP data was gathered for the designated areas at 50<\/b> m profile spacing & 10<\/b> m electrode interval, for a cumulative of 13.5<\/b> LKM.\u00a0 SP survey followed with 2D Imaging survey was conducted for a cumulative 2.6<\/b> LKM along 10<\/b> profile lines targeting a probe depth of 100<\/b> m from surface level.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    The investigation revealed presence of mineralization zones with significant volume of potential resources and hence further exploration & resource estimation have been recommended. Initial exploration in pitting revealed presence of good grade of flaky graphite presence within graphite schist instilling confidence to proceed further into detailed exploration program. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
