About Midlands Minerals:
Midlands Minerals is focused on developing a portfolio of high quality gold
exploration projects in Ghana and Tanzania, countries with exceptional histories
of gold production and home to some of the most profitable gold mines in Africa.
Midland's flagship gold property is the 65% owned Sian project, site of a past
producing open pit gold mine located in the Ashanti gold belt. Sian has NI
43-101 compliant Indicated gold resources of 2.6 million tonnes grading 2.33 g/t
gold (192,400 ounces) and Inferred gold resources of 2.7 million tonnes grading
2.35 g/t gold (203,350 ounces). Extensions to these resources are open along
strike and at depth, highlighting the potential to grow the gold resource at
Sian. Midlands' Kaniago gold project is located in Ghana's Asankrangwa gold belt
and is contiguous to two past open pit gold producers: Abore to the north and
Obotan to the south. Recent drilling and exploration has produced encouraging
results, demonstrating the gold resource potential of the project.
Midlands also holds licences for gold and diamonds in two regions in Tanzania.
The first is found in the Lake Victoria Goldfields region and includes its
advanced Itilima Gold Project, which lies within the Geita-Bulyanhulu-Sekenke
Trend, which hosts over 40 million ounces in gold reserves. The second region
lies within the Kilindi-Handeni Trend and includes the New Kilindi-Handeni
prospecting licences.
