Afri-Can Marine Minerals Corp. started its sampling program on block J in Namibia on Sunday, April 25, 2010.
The program will cover features 6, 8, 17 and 19 covering seven geological zones and will comprise a total of 332 samples. Of these, 271 are sited within delineated targets covering 19.6 square kilometres. The remaining 61 samples are designed to test geological formations that are thought to be potentially diamond bearing, but have not yet been proven as such. Approximately 22 square kilometres will be examined in future programs of detailed geophysics, vibracoring and evaluation sampling. The aim of the complete surveying and sampling program is to delineate diamond resources on Afri-Can’s block J marine diamond concession in Namibia in compliance with National Instrument 43-101.
Afri-Can holds a 70-per-cent interest in block J through a joint venture agreement with the licensee, Woduna Mining Holdings Pty. Ltd.
