Geology:
Southernly extension of granite from Gatumba mining area, with significant structural complexity and known 3T occurrences.
Project Owner:
This opportunity is promoted by the Rwanda Mines, Petroleum, and Gas Board (RMB). Established in February 2017, RMB is the Rwandan Government body responsible for implementing and advising the government on national policies, laws, and strategy related to mines, petroleum, and gas.
