About Tango Mining Limited
Tango Mining Limited is a Canadian company that holds a 100% interest in the 2,088.8 ha El Santo concession, Nicaragua and newly acquired South African mining assets comprising of four operations service contracts and diamond mining rights of 8,800 hectares (ha) along the Orange River in the well- established alluvial diamond-mining province known to produce high quality and large sized diamonds.
The Kwena Mining Project division of Tango operates in the Witbank coal district, Mpumalanga and Natal Provinces, South Africa and provide contract mining, metallurgical process and engineering services to clientele that include Total (SA) and Glencore PLC. A total of 19.5 million tons are currently under contract over next 3 years and provide the basis of employment to our highly qualified engineering and processing team consisting out of a staffing complement of 285.
Oena is located 50 kilometers (km) upstream of Namdeb's Auchas and Daberas alluvial diamond mines which are on the Namibian or north bank of the river, while Trans Hex's Reuning and Baken alluvial diamond mines are respectively 15 km and 60 km downstream of Oena on the South African or southern bank of the river. A recently filed National Instrument 43-101 report supports a bulk sampling program of 1.5 million tpa to extract a targeted 1200 carats (ct) at an indicative stone size of 1.39 ct/stone.
Management have identified the biggest risk in advancing this project is associated with the resource performance (grade) and product assurance (theft), both of which require the Company to ensure optimal recovery of diamonds. Risk mitigation through implementation of the BVX technology should increase diamond recovery efficiency and limit human interaction with the product.
The Company's vision is to become a diversified junior mining company with interests in precious and base metals, coal, diamond and precious stone mining projects.
