Pitangui Gold Project, Brazil

The Pitangui project, located about 110 kilometers northwest of the city of Belo Horizonte in Minas Gerais State, Brazil , comprises about 180 square kilometers of exploration licenses and license applications covering the Archean aged Pitangui greenstone belt. Current mineral resources for the São Sebastião deposit comprise an estimated inferred resource of 4.07 million tonnes grading 4.88 grams of gold per tonne for 0.64 million contained ounces (effective January 9, 2014 ; see news release dated April 9, 2014 ).

Gold mineralization is hosted by a series of parallel and complexly folded horizons of banded iron formation (‘BIF’) separated by mafic volcanic and minor sedimentary units within the lower greenstone belt stratigraphy. Within the iron formations, gold mineralization is associated with sulphide replacement of primary magnetite bands, characterized by the presence of pyrrhotite and lesser amounts of arsenopyrite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite. Drilling to date has identified two main mineralized horizons, referred to as “Biquinho” and “Pimentoa”, that occur about 100 meters apart vertically.

Several active mining operations in the Brazilian Iron Quadrangle exploit gold deposits of a comparable age, host rock type and mineralization style. Examples comprise AngloGold Ashanti’s Cuiabá and Lamego deposits.
