Infographics for Preliminary Site Assessment and Inspection

This infographic outlines the Preliminary Site Assessment and Inspection process that we conduct before deciding to enter into a partnership with a mining site holder or license holder in Tanzania, Uganda, or other countries where the Start Your Own Gold Mine program is available. Mr. Jean Louis and the team are inspecting the mining site to evaluate its living and working resources, assess previous gold mining activities, and prepare for future mining site development.

Introduction and approval for Preliminary Site Assessment and Inspection

Before any important decisions can be made regarding a mining site, our company is conducting a Preliminary Site Assessment and Inspection project. This project aims to thoroughly assess and analyze the life and business resources available on the mining site, to understand the needs and requirements for future living and mining activities, as well as to consider the site’s previous gold mining history.

Following information is gathered and assessed in relation to the mining site:

  1. The legality of the license, the current status of the license, land ownership, and any other relevant legal issues.

  2. Upon arrival at the mining site, we ensure that essential resources for our team members are immediately available, such as food, accommodation when necessary, and essential tools.

  3. We are identifying the exact location of the mining site and may utilize GPS to verify its corners. We will also assess whether any previous excavations or resources are located on the mining site or outside its boundaries.

  4. We are searching for potential water sources for mining and living purposes. Water, being the most important factor for gold recovery, is our priority. We will explore solutions to bring water to the mining site or transport ores to other locations where they can be processed for gold recovery.

  5. We are reviewing the operational gold mining history and verifying the availability of access to ores and the presence of gold in the soil or rocks.

  6. We are also reviewing local resources, including drinking water, food availability, and similar factors.

  7. We review the communication resources on the mining site, including radio calls and mobile networks.

  8. We review all available business resources, including gold recovery plants, equipment, quality of gold, and any other relevant assets.

  9. We assess the safety on the mining site, ensuring that all potential hazards are identified and mitigated through comprehensive safety protocols. Our due diligence process includes evaluating the site’s compliance with environmental regulations and industry standards, while also examining the geological conditions and the surrounding land position. We conduct thorough risk assessments to determine the viability of operations and the potential impact on local communities. Additionally, we analyze historical data related to previous mining activities in the area to gauge any environmental or safety concerns that may affect current operations. By maintaining a proactive approach to safety and risk management, we aim to create a secure working environment for our team and promote sustainable mining practices.

  10. We assess the nearest village or town in relation to its development and what resources it may offer to us, such as technicians, hospitals, food, timber, and similar, while also considering the local community’s ability to support our mining operations.

  11. We assess the possible mercury pollution on the mining site and in the surrounding areas, taking into account historical usage, local geological conditions, and the proximity of water sources that may be affected. Additionally, we examine potential pathways for contamination, including air, soil, and water, while also evaluating the impact on local communities and ecosystems. Our due diligence process involves comprehensive sampling and analysis to accurately quantify mercury levels, alongside a thorough review of regulatory compliance and environmental management practices employed by current operations. Furthermore, we consider stakeholder engagement to gather insights on community concerns and historical context, ensuring a holistic understanding of the land position and its implications for sustainable mining practices.

  12. We assess the possibilities for accommodating future activities on the same mining sites while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and stakeholder interests.

  13. We may inform the mining site holder about our findings and preliminary conclusions, and recommend further steps for a more comprehensive evaluation of the land position.

  14. We analyze the information gathered and finalize the report, which is usually done at our headquarters; once completed, we make conclusions and recommendations for the next steps in the mining site development while ensuring all due diligence has been thoroughly conducted.
