AMIS0696 Cu 27.38% Co 267 ppm Sulphide CD
Origin of Material
The Frontier deposit is located in the DRC on the east flank of the Kafue anticline, ~30km southeast of Mufulira. The deposit occurs within shales in the upper portions of the Mwashya Subgroup and within the base of the Nguba Group. The deposit is structurally controlled with sulfides in veins and irregular replacements adjacent to a major recumbent fold nucleated along the originally normal faults.
Approximate Mineral and Chemical Composition
The mineral composition and modal abundances are Chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) between 50-60%, Pyrite (FeS2) between 30-40% and Quartz (SiO2) between 0.1-1%.
