Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s maiden mineral resource for its Bisie North project in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Barrett said the milestone confirms the existence of a tin-copper mineralisation system across the Kalayi and Mont Agoma prospects. The company has so far drilled only shallow depths — down to around 250 metres — and along approximately 600 metres of strike at each location. However, the results align strongly with those from Alphamin’s nearby operation, which Barrett described as a “very close analogue.”
Barrett explained that mineralisation at surface starts narrow and lower grade but becomes wider and higher grade at depth, especially nearer the granite source. “We’ve identified the system and we’re going to drill deeper in Mont Agoma main zone… and also deeper in Kalayi,” he said.
He also pointed to substantial exploration upside in untested soil geochemistry anomalies and the underexplored Eastern Zone. Looking forward, Barrett said Rome Resources is engaging with potential strategic investors and exploring possible nearby acquisitions. He highlighted that a partnership could allow the company to advance the project without shareholder dilution, noting, “We’re always trying to look after the shareholder value.”
