Ltd. subisidiary at its Gibi Mountain iron ore deposit in the Republic of Liberia. The initial drilling contract has been awarded to Cestos Investments Liberia Inc. (Cestos Drilling). Drilling activities followed considerable geological investigations at the Gibi property confirming extensive outcrop of BIF and supported by assay results consistently showing the presence of high-grade iron ore which classify it as DSO (Direct Shipping Ore) material. Amir Mirchi, Chief Executive of SML and Chairman of West26, welcomed collaboration with Cestos Drilling and commented that: this is a remarkable milestone taking our deposit development to the next level of exploration investigations and further definition delivering value to all stakeholders, local communities and the wider host country.” Stephane Rigny the chairman of SML, on his return from a recent site visit said: “it is exciting to see the impressive progress our teams are making to further define the Gibi deposit. Beyond the expected high-quality DSO, the geography of this deposit makes it particularly interesting as it lies at a short distance of viable export infrastructure in Bucchanan and Monrovia. Even more compelling, is that Gibi has export alternatives which would require only very light infrastructure for transportation to the coast. In parallel to this drilling exercise, we will define the export solutions and seek to confirm our ability to bring high quality Iron Ore to the market at extremely competitive prices.”.
