Technical scope

Target generation

Exploration · 2023 — 2024
  • Targeting high-margin deposits — gold, copper, polymetals, nickel, cobalt — in Kazakhstan and neighbouring territories
  • Replenishing the resource base of aluminium and chromium, ERG Kazakhstan’s core metals
  • Review of historical and archive data on more than 90 prospective areas in Kazakhstan
  • Integrated analysis of geological structure, type and intensity of alteration, and correlation of geophysical and geochemical anomalies
  • Six prospective areas identified (five in Kazakhstan, one in Uzbekistan) and scheduled for exploration

Introduction of the ionic leaching technique

Exploration · 2023 — 2024
  • Introduction of the ionic leaching technique developed by VIMS (Russia) for targeting deep-seated Cu-Pb-Zn deposits and those concealed beneath young sedimentary cover
  • Integrating the technique into exploration at one of ERG Exploration’s Pb-Zn properties, together with active work in this area, made it possible to establish the presence of commercial-grade polymetallic mineralisation
