Metal Tiger Plc (LON:MTR) has given details of nineteen potential exploration targets that have been identified in the T3 Dome area, of its Kalahari copper belt in Botswana.

The AIM-quoted group’s exploration partner MOD Resources had undertaken an airborne electromagnetic geophysics survey that identified the nineteen anomalies.

"We are delighted to report on the findings of a provisional interpretation of the Airborne Electromagnetic survey data,” said Michael McNeilly, Metal Tiger chief executive.

“The AEM data will prove an important tool to help focus exploration efforts on the discovery of further T3 Type copper/silver deposits along the T3 Dome. 

"Whilst it is too early to determine whether these 19 anomalies are directly related to copper mineralisation, the large number and variety of these anomalies provides exciting possibilities."

McNeilly told investors that each anomaly will now be evaluated, along with other existing ground survey data, so that the geological team can prioritise each target for drill testing.

Metal Tiger detailed that the new targets include discrete, formational and deeper conductive anomalies. Several of them show similarities to the ground signature at T3.

It added that three of them are located directly along strike from the large Banana Zone copper resources, which are owned by Cupric Canyon Capital.
