Talonx Resources has commenced fieldwork at its Kihabe Project in the north-west, with initial soil sampling, mapping and targeted rock-chip sampling focused on the Gossan area.
According to the company, the program advances the exploration strategy outlined under the blueprint: ‘Copper and Base-Metal Discovery Potential in Botswana.
Under the planned fieldwork Talonx intends to assess successive areas across the Project, using low-cost surface geochemistry, geological mapping and historical data to define and rank copper and base-metal drill targets beyond the established deposits.
“Fieldwork is now under way at Kihabe as we advance the wider copper and base-metal opportunity outlined in our recent announcement. Historical copper intersections and the established Kihabe and Nxuu deposits provide a strong foundation for exploring the extensive areas beyond the known resources.
“The Gossan area is our starting point. We intend to progressively sample and map other prospective areas, maintaining a pipeline of targets at different stages and focusing follow-up work on those with the strongest evidence to support drill testing,” said Talonx Resources Executive Chairman, Dr Steve Lennon.
Meanwhile, advancing exploration across Kihabe Gossan marks the start of a broader field program to build a pipeline of copper and base-metal targets across Kihabe.
Talonx will progressively extend mapping and surface sampling to other prospective areas, integrating results with historical drilling and geological information.
