Central Rutile Project, Cameroon

21 exploration permits under valid applications covering ~8,782 km²

All the key ingredients to become a world-class rutile deposit.

This is our flagship project, representing a world-class, district-scale opportunity. The geology is directly comparable to the world’s largest Tier-1 rutile deposits , with a deep ‘Kasiya-type’ weathering profile that concentrates high-grade rutile in soft, free-dig saprolite.

Location:
Central Cameroon
Commodity:
Rutile, Graphite
Project Size:
Approximately 8,780 km²
Licences:
21 exploration permits under valid applications.
Ownership:
Under Valid Application.

Geology

Rutile: The project area is predominantly underlain by kyanite-bearing mica schist and garnet paragneiss bedrock, which is the source rock for the rutile.

Graphite: Mainly concentrated in mottled and saprolite zones, increasing with depth as oxidation decreases, preserving more material in lower horizons.

Significant Mineralisation Confirmed

  • Initial reconnaissance sampling confirmed high-grade residual rutile mineralisation ​
  • Validation of geological model targeting Tier 1 residual rutile deposits​
  • Ultra high-grade rutile including 1.57% and 2.1% rutile ​
  • Several ore-grade rutile occurrences (>0.7%+) ​

Favourable Geology:

Course rutile nuggets (1-5mm) from GRAMAU0004.

Deep Weathering Profile:

Road cutting exposure from the GRMBG0001 locality showing a classic deep in-situ weathering profile.

Historical Evidence:

Historical production from the area (1935-1955) recorded 15,000 tons of high-purity rutile (>95%).
