Banro Corporation | Lugushwa Prospect (2019)
J.N. Gloyn-Jones and Dr I.J. Basson in Association with Dr B. Davis
Following exploratory and infill drilling campaigns that led to the discovery and delineation of auriferous mineralisation at the Lugushwa Prospect, located within the Maniema Region of the DRC, Tect was requested by the Exploration Department of Banro Corporation to establish the structural controls on auriferous mineralisation and to integrate these, along with mine-focused drilling and historical data, into a fully-constrained, structurally-accurate 3D implicit model. This re-modelling was required for an interim resource update, mine planning and exploration drillhole planning.
The scope of work involved structural and lithological field mapping, diamond drill core review, structural interpretation of aeromagnetic data and structural analysis of mine- and deposit-scale features, in order to identify zones that were prone to preferential fluid throughput and concentrated auriferous mineralisation. The interpretation considered deformation events, kinematics, fabric development, structural architecture, alteration and quartz vein orientation and infill. A robust paragenetic sequence was established by Brett Davis, Principal of Orefind/Olinda Gold and Adjunct Research Fellow at Olinda Gold. Diamond and exploratory reverse circulation (RC) drilling data was re-interpreted in 3D. Tect’s analysis revealed that orebodies reflect fluid movement and concentration in dilational sites within macro-scale folds and confining shear zones. The bulk of mineralisation occurs as sulphidised wall-rock and vein/vein systems, collectively constituting saddle reef-type ore lenses within moderately- to gently-plunging antiforms. Subordinate auriferous mineralisation is situated in the adjacent confining shear zones that surround the folded tectonostratigraphy. Discontinuous sub-vertical mineralised lenes exhibit highly-strained oblate geometries with high degrees of flattening strain.
