Ivanhoe Mines this week announced that the strike length of the shallow, thick, massive copper sulphide mineralisation at Kamoa North that was discovered earlier this year in drill hole DD1450 on the Kamoa-Kakula mining licence, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, has been significantly extended by assays received from ongoing drilling. Recent drilling has confirmed that the discovery zone of bonanza-grade copper mineralisation at Kamoa North – the Kamoa North Bonanza Zone – is continuous over a strike length of at least 350 m and a width of up to 60 m.
