Mkangombe North Ore Showing has attracted an attention by showing a remarkable geochemical anomaly of gold of 407 parts per billion in enveloping soils by the geochemistry,which was carried out during the course of a part of the first-year programme 1990 of the current Project.The outlined generals of Mkangombe North Ore Showing,elucidated by the second-year works,1991,are stated below:
Type of mineralization Base metals ore vein associated with
quartz,structurally controlled by faulting
Primary ore mineral Chalcopyrite,galena,sphalerite,
pyrite,magnetite
Secondary ore mineral
Gangue mineral
Strike/Dip of veins
Extension of ore vein
Vein width
Malachite,a zurite,covellite,
cerussite,hemimorphite,hematite, maghemite,goethite,lepidochrosite
Quartz,calcite
N25°to 30°E/55°to 70°SE
More than 300 metres
