Scott Plummer, RMS Ross President and Sunergy Advisory Board Member says: “The black sands (REE’s) are quite probably worth as much or more as the free gold, especially since an average of 14g/ton of gold is still contained in the black sands (REE’s) concentrate after the free gold has been recovered”.
Mr Wilfred Ullrich, Sunergy’s Operations Manager in Sierra Leone, regarding the recent Sunergy Gold/Black Sands (REE’s) sampling program, says: "The Sunergy concession incorporates approximately 38 river km. The black sand (REE’s) deposit in the river, starts from the center of the river and extends approximately 1km east and west. The area, designated as the "strip", has an average of 3.5 kilos of black sand (REE’s) per square meter, extending to the bedrock. Overburden ranges from 0 to 7 meters. In addition to the known mineralized material that is within the 200 meter wide strip of river, there is an additional kilometer on each side of the strip which is also very rich in black sand. We have samples from all over the concession and have the analysis from the concession northeast of us."
Testing and existing data indicate gold concentrations ranging from 1 to 18 grams per tonne of material. Fire assays conducted in Freetown by the Company show the gold purity at 94%. Assays of black sand concentrates, showed quantities of rare earth metals and other valuable minerals in commercially exploitable grades. Assays by ALS Chemex in Sparks, Nevada identified several of these rare earths contained in the black sands with gold as follows: Lanthanum, Scandium, Thallium, Cerium, Dysprosium, Hafnium, Lutetium, Niobium, Neodymium, Praesodymium, Tantalum and Zircon.
