URU progressing South African project
London-listed URU Metals has appointed GF International to undertake a combined ground gravity and frequency-domain electromagnetic survey over two priority targets at its Zeb nickel project, near Mokopane, Limpopo, South Africa.
The work is designed to refine conductor geometry and generate decision-ready drill targets.
In parallel, URU has appointed a specialist service provider to implement the environmental rehabilitation guarantee which is required for the granting of the Zeb nickel mining right.
The engagement covers issuance of the guarantee on terms that would be acceptable to the regulator and consistent with the company’s agreed financial-provisioning framework.
“Transitioning from airborne targeting to ground geophysics is the critical step to refine our highest-priority conductors along the intrusive margins. The programme is designed to generate decision-ready targets for efficient drilling at Zeb nickel.
“While the team is busy with the ground geophysics, we're also locking in the practical legislative compliance pieces. Putting the rehabilitation guarantee provider in place is a simple, value-protective step that keeps the project on the front foot,” URU exploration VP Richard Montjoie explains.
Mobilisation is scheduled to commence in later October, with acquisition expected to complete within 30 field days, subject to weather, line clearing and on-site access.
URU says it will provide an update on modelling outputs and drill parameters upon receipt and review of the contractor’s report.
