Cobre Limited has kicked off a 5-hole, 2,000-meter diamond drilling initiative at its Okavango Copper Project (OCP) in Botswana.
This endeavor aims to explore for copper-silver mineralization adjacent to MMG’s Zone 5 and Boseto groups, building on previous drilling success in 2019 and leveraging geophysical data to pinpoint promising sites.
Situated near MMG’s Khoemacau Copper mine, the OCP is strategically positioned to benefit from potential discoveries.
The drilling program, set to begin within two months, aligns with Cobre’s strategy to advance immediate targets while also exploring for Tier 1 opportunities as part of the 2024 BHP Xplor program.
Previous surveys conducted by Kalahari Metals, now part of Cobre, revealed promising geological features conducive to sedimentary copper deposits.
This includes identifying trap-site rocks and evidence of an active system with copper-bearing brines. The current drill campaign aims to further delineate these geological features and prioritize target areas for future exploration.
With the commencement of the drilling program, Cobre aims to unlock the full potential of the Okavango Copper Project and contribute to its growth strategy in the region.
