Drilling the #KSZ is a great technical challenge. #KAV is aiming to achieve what no one else has managed before
We've recruited the best possible drilling partner we could in Mindea/Equity Drilling
This photo gallery is from a recent project they successfully drilled

#KAV Kavango’s main focus in the southwest of Botswana is the huge north-south trending 450km x 50km magnetic anomaly known as the Kalahari Suture Zone (KSZ). Targeting world class Norilsk style Cu-Ni-PGE deposits.
Overview of the KSZ and work carried out so far #KAV
Plan view of Phase 2 AEM survey modelled by Aarhus Geophysics Ltd. The image is a horizontal slice at 240m depth below surface showing EM anomalies. Dots represent single line anomalies whereas linear shapes are over several lines. Each horizontal line is 500m apart. #KAV
A bit of background to #KAV @KavangoRes and their RNS today, which is generating deserved interest 1/
In much of the world, the low-hanging fruit have been found. "Out cropping, at-surface" etc.
Explorers are now having to move to new areas, where there are no visible signs at surface to guide them. 2/

Good examples of this are #MOD @ModResources in Botswana. Their T3 deposit is hidden under featureless desert. It was found by soil anomalies and fancy geophysics before drilling. 3/
#KAV @KavangoRes is setting itself up to be a very attractive pure "discovery drilling" play, and its showing all the right signs. 1/
First, #KAV is first-hole-in-an-area, pure discovery drilling.
Not infill, step-out or other follow-on holes. Yes these are a necessary part of the journey of a junior, but market excitement comes at initial discovery. 2/

Second, potential for scale. The business model for what I view as a "proper" junior (IYSWIM) is to find an asset large enough to be of interest to pass on to a mid-tier or major.
The KSZ licence area is huge, the length of Wales. 3/
