Musongati Project

Argosy Minerals Inc. through its subsidiary, Andover Resources NL negotiated a comprehensive Mining convention with the Burundian government that was ratified by the Burundi National Assembly on March 11, 1999 in respect of the Musongati Nickel Project.  This convention sets out issues including mineral rights, a work program, royalties and taxation.  

Since the original discovery of the Musongati deposit there have been three phases of diamond core drilling, a bulk sampling program and five metallurgical studies.  The technical evaluation was combined with transportation, energy and logistical studies to a prefeasibility level of confidence.  

The Musongati deposits were also extensively assayed for platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold during the drilling campaigns in the 1970’s and 1980’s.  That work and subsequent mineralogical studies confirmed the presence of PGM’s in both the laterite and in association with nickel-copper sulphides in the underlying ultramafic rocks.  The PGM association and the implications for an underlying massive sulphide deposit make the Musongati deposit unique from an exploration perspective.  

The Project is now at the stage where a Bankable Feasibility Study is required to verify its technical and economic viability with regard to both the nickel laterite resource and PGM potential.  

As previously stated a delegation from Argosy including its legal and financial advisors will be traveling to Burundi at the end of this week to meet with the Government to discuss moving forward with the Project.  

It would be premature at this point in time to speculate on the outcome of the discussions.
