Africa: Mineral Exploration Strategy

Since 2020, SRK has been assisting a client in Egypt with exploration strategy and planning, fieldwork, technical auditing and training. The client’s orogenic gold exploration assets in the Red Sea Hills of eastern Egypt contain extensive artisanal excavations, some suspected of being over 2,000 years old. SRK has used remote sensing technologies and geological mapping to generate targets, and worked with the client’s geologists to get the most from trenching, and diamond core and reverse circulation drilling programmes.
