Company Statement

Zambezi Resources Limited (Zambezi) is focused on adding shareholder value by exploring for and developing copper and gold projects in Southern Zambia. The basis for the company’s strategy is Zambian mineral endowment, international capital and Australian expertise.

Zambezi has identified seven major project areas, which it is actively exploring. The projects have been identified as Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) type deposits and also shear-hosted gold deposits. These projects are contained within eight prospecting licenses covering an area of over 16,000km². Zambezi currently retains 100% ownership of its projects, although Zambia's abundant mineral endowment has lead Zambezi to seek joint venture partners to assist with funding exploration on some of its projects.

Zambezi has a modern operations office in Lusaka, Zambia, housing its technical  staff and a small administrative and technical support office in West Perth, Western Australia.
