History of the Ofoase Project |
Previous regional work conducted by the Ghana Geological Survey outlined gold anomalies in silt samples from streams draining the concession area. In 1999, a further 33 stream sediment samples were taken. Fire assay results on the 2kg samples were reported to range from 0.019 to 16.074 g/t Au, with 20 samples assaying greater than 1.0 g/t Au.
