JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – TSX-listed Nexus Gold on Friday reported that its second- and third-stage work programmes for the Bouboulou concession, in Burkina Faso, aimed at defining a resource and publishing an estimate, are expected to start in early 2017.
The Bouboulou exploration permit, which covers 38.8 km2, is located about 75 km north-west of the capital Ouagadougou and is accessible by paved road.
The Bouboulou permit is located on the Boromo-Goren greenstone belt and is bisected by the Sabce shear zone. This regional north-east trending structure hosts numerous artisanal workings along its 120 km length; it also hosts the Bissa Hills deposit currently being mined by Norgold.
