Asankrangwa Gold Project (Ghana) – Mineral Resource Estimation
Work Conducted:
AI-driven spectral analysis, AI-driven mineral exploration targeting, assessment of alluvial gold potential, integration of historical and new drilling results, 3D geological modelling and Mineral Resource Estimation (JORC 2012).
Commodity: Gold (Au)
AI-Driven Exploration Analysis
AI-assisted workflows were applied to:
Spectral analysis and mineral prospectivity mapping
Generation and ranking of mineral exploration targets
Identification of prospective geological and structural target zones
Assessment and delineation of alluvial gold potential areas
Evaluation of spatial relationships between spectral responses, geology, structure and known mineralisation
Prioritisation of areas for drilling and follow-up exploration
Drilling and Resource Evaluation
More than 26,000 m of drilling completed
Drilling results integrated into the geological and 3D mineralisation model
Inferred Mineral Resource: 5.4 Mt @ 0.9 g/t Au (~150 koz Au)
Exploration Target: 42–63 Mt @ 0.5–0.8 g/t Au (0.9–1.3 Moz Au)
Strong spatial correlation observed between AI-generated exploration targets and drilling results
Outcome
The project demonstrated the practical application of AI-driven exploration targeting and spectral analysis for identifying prospective mineralised and alluvial gold areas.
AI-based targeting supported the definition and prioritisation of exploration zones, while drilling data, geological interpretation and 3D modelling provided the basis for Mineral Resource evaluation and further assessment of resource expansion potential.
