Haqalah

Elmore Projects

Overview

The Haqalah Copper Project is located 85 km southwest of Al Ain. The project consists of a sequence of ophiolitic, ultrabasic and metamorphic rocks and the available evidence confirms the presence of massive sulfide copper mineralization in this area. Based on information obtained from core drilling, the complex geological history of the area, together with the influence of previous tectonic structures, has caused mineralization to occur in both ophiolitic and metamorphic sequences. In April 2024, after 1250 meters of drilling that began in 2023, a report of 1000 meters of core drilling was published. The results of these drillings indicate a north-south trending vein with a copper grade of 0.5% or more, the highest recorded value for copper grades up to 1%.

Geophysical Surveys

Considering the type of deposit, which has been identified as massive sulfide based on geological surveys, and also by identifying fault structures and magnetic lineaments through magnetometry surveys across the entire area, in the next stage, geophysical studies were conducted using the geoelectric (IP-RS) method to identify areas with sulfide production. In this stage, by surveying about 3200 geoelectric points, veins and areas with sulfide production related to mineralization zones were accurately identified.

 

Exploratory drilling within the licensed area

Mineralization in this section has a distinct north-south trend, with the direction of the mineral vein slope towards ultrabasic rocks. According to the logging of the boreholes, chalcopyrite and bornite are the main copper minerals. According to boreholes 1, 2, 4, 10, 11, 14 and 16, which are 70 meters apart, the thickness of the mineralized zone is cut at a minimum of 0.5 meters and a maximum of 4 meters, with a grade range between 0.6 and 1 percent and an average grade of 0.8 percent. Structurally, this lens also extends eastward.
