Regional Gold Potential
Betanase is located in Ghana, Africa. The surrounding region has historically demonstrated a very high potential for gold endowment and is very proximal to other gold properties. Physical setting (low elevation, moderate relief, tropical climate) shapes access, seasonality, and operating costs. Geologically, the area is dominated by Acid plutonic rocks, under very thin lithosphere with thin sedimentary cover in a Early Proterozoic Shield tectonic province—factors that inform both deposit style and development complexity.
Drill Intercepts
Reported results (Gold) average low grade, short, and very deep. The most recent intercepts are benchmarked against a global gold database.
