Title:

221129000507: Renewal of ECC exploration activities on EPL3670 (Chungochoab) in Erongo Region

Publication Year:

2022

Abstract:

EPL3670 is considered to be prospective for both, primary and secondary (surficial) uranium mineralization. Leucogranites under cover are believed to host primary ‘Rossing’-style uranium mineralization, in particular along favorable lithostratigraphic contacts. The Cenozoic sediment cover has potential to host surficial ‘Langer Heinrich’-style uranium mineralization. Airborne EM data indicates the existence of NNE-SSW trending drainages. Isolated uranium anomalies over the Cenozoic succession on EPL3670 support this mineralization model.
