AXMIN Inc. a gold exploration company offers dynamic growth with a track record of finding and developing mines in Africa. AXMIN's strategy is to focus on newly democratic countries where it has the opportunity to acquire highly prospective ground as an early entrant. The Company has a substantial depth of African experience both through its team of explorers and its major shareholder The Addax and Oryx Group.
AXMIN’s first feasibility study is completed at Passendro in Central African Republic as the Kofi Project in Mali and the Komahun Project in Sierra Leone rapidly gain momentum. The company’s objective is to maintain the pace of advancement, ensuring a strong pipeline of development projects to follow Passendro as AXMIN makes the transition from explorer towards producer.
AXMIN holds the premier land position in the Central African Republic (CAR) with six permits totaling over 3,900 sq km. Its most advanced being the Passendro Gold Project located in the centre of its 140 km long Bakala-Bambari permits in CAR has a total resource of 2.6 million ounces of gold (indicated resource of 1.8 million ounces in 23.2 Mt grading 2.4 g/t Au and inferred resource of 1.01 million ounces in 16.7 Mt grading 1.9 g/t Au). In April 2008 AXMIN completed its definitive feasibility study on the 200,000 ounce per year Passendro Project, to include a resource/reserve of 1.3 million ounces of gold in 16.8 Mt grading 2.4 g/t Au. In addition to Passendro, AXMIN also operates in the 15 moz Loulo district in western Mali, where it has a current resource of 0.66 million ounces at its Kofi Gold Project (indicated resource of 293,000 ozs in 3.6 Mt grading 2.5 g/t Au and inferred resource of 368,000 ozs in 5.3 Mt grading 2.2 g/t Au) and an initial inferred resource of 392,000 ounces in 4.9 Mt grading 2.5 g/t Au on its Komahun Project in Sierra Leone. Resource upgrades are expected from Komahun projects in Q4 2008.
As AXMIN continues its discussions witht he Government of CAR with respect to the issuing of the Mining Licence for Passendro in parallel its projects in Mali and Sierra Leone are gaining ground. It’s the Company’s objective to maintain the pace of advancement on all fronts to ensure that there is a pipeline of development projects as it makes the transition from explorer towards producer.
