The Andong Bor license, consisting of 100 square kilometers, had preliminary drilling completed several years ago under a different licensee, with strong copper and gold results. The license is due west of Ratanakiri province and straddles two provinces, Oddar Meanchey and Banteay Meanchey.

VP Exploration, Dennis Ouellette, comments, "This is a drill ready target rather than grass roots exploration, which means we enter this project with a substantial amount of data and information. We know that one prospect, called Thmei North, is a copper porphyry; we now need to see how large and robust it is, plus explore other areas of the license." Ouellette continues, "Our plan is to complete the environmental and social impact assessment, do geochemistry and magnetic surveys, and then follow up with IP and drilling thereafter. It is always helpful to have an existing mineralized drill hole within the target area over which the IP survey will be conducted. Interpretation of the IP pseudo-sections is greatly improved".
The CCC management team brings to Cambodia experience from South America, United States, Canada, South-East Asia, Australia, and Mexico regarding copper projects and markets.
Highlights of the alliance include:
-
CCC provides full project funding
-
Angkor is the Operator on the license
-
Joint consultation and best practices to be undertaken with all geological and work programs
CCC has a focused interest in copper and companion metal projects across the globe and is keen to advance the opportunity in Cambodia working with the Angkor team. CEO of CCC, Mr. Terry Lyons, commented on the project and the alliance with Angkor. "We are very pleased to be partnering with Angkor on this exciting project. Angkor brings a strong technical team and a depth of expertise in Cambodia which will be complemented by CCC's expertise in capital markets and the international copper business. Cambodia is in the process of developing a strong mineral sector and has enhanced its sector governance to welcome foreign investment. We see this project as an excellent opportunity to advance a drill ready series of targets based on previous drill results and other field work in a strongly mineralized area."
Referring to the project alliance, CEO of Angkor, Delayne Weeks comments, "Having an alliance with global expertise in the copper markets brings depth and strength not only to the Andong Bor license and companies involved, but to Cambodia's entire mineral sector. The country has developed solid mining laws and production processes and is attractive to foreign investment because it is secure, has a healthy GDP, and a keen young workforce. Western expertise in the extractive sector can help expedite modern innovative practices that have evolved over decades elsewhere but can be implemented immediately in Cambodia. "
The Environmental and Social Impact assessment has been commissioned to start immediately and will take several months to complete.
