    Proposal Description
    A total of 25 drillholes will be drilled of which 20 will be RC and five will be diamond drills. The maximum depth of the drillholes will be 70m. The geologist in the field will ensure there is very minimal or no contamination during RC sampling. Samples will be collected from the RC cyclone everyone meter. The geologist will then log every meter of the borehole, recording the lithological characteristic. Each sample will be recorded for weight and moisture content then split into two using a riffle splitter. The one sample will be taken to an accredited laboratory with proper labeling according to borehole information. The remaining sample will be stored for future references.

    Diamond drilling will be conducted to verify the stratigraphy defined by RC drilling. The five diamond drill holes will be drilled at 100m. The core obtained from this type of drilling will be logged by a geologist. The prospecting process of a crusher operation will consist of loading, hauling and crushing. To get to Aggregate weathered material need to be stripped
