Rome Resources has announced it encountered tin mineralisation at its Kalayi prospect in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo, drill campaign in its first material update to investors as a London-listed entity.
After recently coming to London through a Reverse Takeover, Rome Resources has kicked off a 2,700m drilling campaign to further explore the Bisie North Projects at Kalayi. Early results should encourage investors.
Drillhole KBDD005 reached a depth of 164.5m, intersecting a mineralised zone approximately 60m below a previous high-grade discovery. This earlier hole, KBDD003 from Rome’s 2023 campaign, had yielded impressive results: 12.5m at 1.03% tin, including segments of 1m at 2.78% and 1m at 7.12%.
“We are delighted to see visible tin mineralisation in several intervals in the first hole of this drilling campaign and look forward to reporting assays as soon as they become available,” said Paul Barrett, Chief Executive Officer of Rome Resources.
“We are also pleased to be mobilising additional drilling units to site to maintain an aggressive drilling campaign over the coming weeks and months.”
