Geology
The Youga Exploitation Permit is underlain by rocks of the Archean-Proterozoic Man Shield which forms
the southern half of the larger West African Craton. Locally the dominant feature on the permit is the
Tarkwaian basin which is comprised of a succession of arkosic sandstones with subordinate chloriticschist.
The Tarkwaian rocks unconformably overlay Upper Birimian Series volcanics, volcaniclastics and
sediments of the Bole-Navrongo Belt, which extends across north-western Ghana into southern Burkina
Faso.
Mineralization
The Youga gold deposits can be described as epigenetic, mesothermal gold deposits, demonstrating a
strong structural control with a brittle structural style. Gold mineralization is intimately associated with
pervasive silicification, quartz veining and sulphidation (predominantly pyrite), although sulphide
content is extremely low (generally
