By GlobalDataThe Haute Mana gold project covers an area of 121.5km², comprising eight mining concessions.
It is located in the central-south part of French Guiana, around 170km from the capital city of Cayenne. The mine can be accessed through aircraft and a forest trail.
The region is underlain by a Proterozoic greenstone belt composed of volcano-sedimentary sequences impinged by granitoids.
This mine is known as one of the most productive gold producing areas in French Guiana.
The whole region was explored and mapped by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) in the 1980s.
The department conducted further exploration work in the area in the 1990s that included a 79km stretch of soil sampling and 1,224m of diamond drilling.
The concession area is considered to have strong potential for ‘shear-type’ gold mineralisation.
