Location of the Gaoua Project
The Gaoua project covers 750km² within the prolific Boromo greenstone belt, an early Proterozoic Birimian sequence of the West African Craton.

Geology of the Gaoua Project
The major geological units strike north-south. They include basaltic and andesitic rocks, together with volcaniclastic units and chemical sedimentary rocks (chert and quartzite). These units are intruded by diorite and dioritic breccia units.
