CIIT updates progress with Greypole on Zimbabwe gold/chromium evaluation and local chromium supply chain
AI Summary
Tianci International (CIIT) and Greypole Mining said they are progressing geological and feasibility work on a ~500-hectare prospective gold zone (including a 42-hectare priority target) in Gwanda and a ~1,500-hectare prospective chromium area in Zvishavane (core ~420 hectares across six belts). While resource delineation and mining-claims compliance continue, the partners are expanding local chromium procurement and infrastructure — leasing land, planning ~12,000 sq m of warehouses and beneficiation equipment — targeting an average supply capacity of ~10,000 tonnes of chromium products per month to boost trading volumes.
Positives
- Ongoing geological and feasibility work on sizeable prospective resource areas: ~500 ha gold target (42 ha priority) and ~1,500 ha chromium area (core ~420 ha).
- Active steps toward a local chromium supply chain: leased land, planned 12,000 sq m warehousing and procurement of beneficiation equipment.
- Targeting ~10,000 tonnes/month chromium supply capacity to increase CIIT's trading volume and strengthen supply capabilities.
Negatives
- No certified resource estimates, proven reserves, or production start dates disclosed; work remains in evaluation phase.
