Project overview

Orapa Diamond Field

The project centres on a kimberlite pipe of more than 50 hectares in the Orapa Kimberlite Field, with clear structural and geophysical similarities to the world-class Karowe Mine nearby.

At its core is an approximately 25-hectare gravity-modelled target. Integrated gravity and magnetic interpretation has defined priority drill locations to test for kimberlite and assess diamond potential.

Work with diamond geologist Dr Jaime L.B. Presser describes the Fk-181-1 pipe as a historic discovery with geological similarities to Karowe, in 2 km proximity. A drill rig with 600 m capacity has been procured for the maiden drill campaign.
