Apollo Minerals Ltd (ASX:AON)'s Neil Inwood speaks with Proactive’s Elisha Newell about the current work program at the Kroussou Zinc-Lead Project in Gabon, where the explorer returned up to 5.1% zinc and lead from surface rock samples at Target Prospect 1. This was one of 18 targets, the company has identified along the 80 kilometres of prospective strike at Kroussou. The Apollo managing director also highlighted the confirmation of base metal mineralisation at Target Prospect 4 with surface rock chip samples grading up to 1.5% zinc and lead. On the cards now is an airborne electromagnetic survey preparation at Kroussou, with flight operations expected to begin this month. The survey will cover all 18 prospects, with the company looking to identify more shallow, high-grade mineralisation — similar to that already discovered at the Dikaki and Niamabimbou prospects. Reconnaissance mapping, soil and surface rock chip sampling at all target prospect areas are also planned.
