Unternehmensstrategie und – daten:
Baobab Resources plc (AIM:BAO) is a Mozambique focused iron ore, base and precious metal exploreer. The company has a largeland-holding covering five discrete project areas. The Tete iron ore asset is emerging as Baobab's flagship project.
Aktuelle Tätigkeiten:
Baobab Resources, through its wholly owned subsidiary Capitol Resources, holds 16 Prospecting Licences in Mozambique. The portfolio comprises projects ranging from advanced resource definition drill targets to brownfield exploration, and greenfield prospects boasting an array of commodities.
Tete Project
The Tete project is located immediately north of the Provincial capital of Tete and comprises three contiguous Exploration Licences that straddle the central portion of the Tete Mafic Complex, covering an area of approximately 632km2. The Licences contain 5 known vanadiferous titano-magnetite deposits: Singore, located approximately 30km due north of Tete; and the cluster of prospects known collectively as the Massamba Group, located 55km north-northeast of Tete.
Baobab formed a strategic partnership with IFC (International Finance Corporation) in January 2009 where IFC earned a 15% direct interest in the Tete project.
Tete is fast becoming a major investment centre with mining majors Vale and Riversdale/Tata Steel in the process of opening up the Moatize and Benga coal fields. The railway connecting Tete to the port of Beira is being refurbished, as is the port. Low tariff hydro-electric power is readily available from the 2,075megawatt Cahora Bassa dam, with an additional 1,500megawatt scheme at Mphanda N'kuwa, also on the Zamebezi, in advanced planning stages. Coal fired power plants have proposed for Moatize and Benga.

Mundonguara Mine
The Mundonguara mine has been intermittently exploited for copper, gold and silver from the turn of the 20th century until its closure in 1989 due to complications arising from a protracted civil war. In the mine’s final phase, underground development extended to depths of +200m below surface over a strike length of approximately 1km.
The mine is within 2km of the international railway and 5km of the highway, linking the project with the port of Beira. The power lines from the Cahora Bassa hydroelectric power scheme pass within 40km of the mine.

Changara Project
The Changara Project covers an area of 525km2 and is underlain by lower Proterozic rocks of the Rushinga Group which flank the northeastern margin of the Zimbabwe Craton.
The Project is considered highly prospective for SedEx / Broken Hill Type polymetallic base and precious metal mineralisation and hosts numerous occurrences of zinc, lead, manganese, iron ore, fluorite, copper and silver.
Bandire/Sussundenga Project
The Bandire/Sussundenga Project covers an area of 900km2 and is underlain by lower Proterozic rocks flanking the eastern margin of the Zimbabwe Craton. Gold has been won from the Bandire artisanal workings (located immediately adjacent to 581L) since pre-colonial times.
Exploration by Ashanti in the 1990’s defined four discrete gold-in-soil anomalies, three of which lie within the Project area. 11 RC holes drilled by Ashanti into the Bandire workings indicated that gold mineralisation is associated with shallowly west dipping mafic schist intercalations within a highly weathered package of felsic gneiss saprolite. Intercepts included [email protected]/t Au (BRC02) and [email protected]/t Au (BRC07). Mineralisation remains open, with down dip and northern strike continuations persisting into Baobab’s 581L license.
Exploration is targeting low grade, shallow supergene gold mineralisation suitable for low-cost open-pit, heap-leach operation.
