Botswana
Sandfire holds a significant landholding that extends over most of the central and western portions of the Kalahari Copper Belt in Botswana.
The Kalahari Copper Belt is one of the world’s most exciting emerging copper producing regions, hosting both Sandfire’s Motheo Copper Mine and Khoemacau Copper Mining’s Khoemacau Project.
Sandfire’s Kalahari landholding is prospective for sedimentary-style copper deposits and includes several high-priority targets located in close proximity to the Motheo Copper Mine, as well as regional targets with confirmed copper mineralisation.
Kalahari Copper Belt Exploration, Botswana
Sandfire holds a significant landholding that extends over most of the central and western portions of the Kalahari Copper Belt in Botswana.
The Kalahari Copper Belt is one of the world’s most exciting emerging copper producing regions, hosting both Sandfire’s Motheo Copper Mine and Khoemacau Copper Mining’s Khoemacau Project.
Sandfire’s Kalahari landholding is prospective for sedimentary-style copper deposits and includes several high-priority targets located in close proximity to the Motheo Copper Mine, as well as regional targets with confirmed copper mineralisation.
Sandfire has an expanded exploration program underway in the Kalahari Copper Belt, aimed at:
- Targeting high-grade satellite discoveries within the Motheo Expansion Project area with the potential to increase the scale of the Motheo Production Hub
- Delineating additional Resources with the potential to extend mine life; and
- Targeting major new regional discoveries to unlock the copper belt’s broader potential.
Sandfire’s licences extend over most of the central and western portions the belt and include many structural domes and anticlines interpreted to start at shallow depth below an extensive near-surface calcrete layer.
