JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Geological mapping conducted at Aim-listed Armadale’s recently acquired high-grade Mahenge Liandu graphite project, in south-east Tanzania, has confirmed extensive areas of graphite mineralisation.

This is coincident with the conductive targets identified by the recent electromagnetic (EM) survey and further highlights the prospectivity of the project.

The company has started digging pits into areas of outcrop to obtain samples for initial metallurgical testwork of the graphite mineralisation.  

Mobilising equipment, including a bulldozer, to clear drilling pads, is now under way, with management expecting drilling to begin in early September.
 
“Having already identified prospective targets for drilling from our recent EM survey, drill pads are now being built on site, with drill rigs expected to arrive shortly,” says chairperson William Frewen
