(Alliance News) - Oriole Resources PLC on Tuesday said it has acquired a 51% interest in Reservoir Minerals Cameroon Sarl for its early-stage exploration licences.
RMC is the holding company for the Bibemi and Wapouze orogenic gold projects in northern Cameroon. Oriole said it acquired at no additional cost a majority interest in RMC's three newly granted licences in central Cameroon.
AIM-listed Oriole recently completed USD1.6 million of exploration funding over two years at the Bibemi and Wapouze projects, and has now formalised its 51% ownership of RMC.
Oriole said it expected to reach its second expenditure commitment, giving it a 90% interest in licences in the five Cameroonian mining projects, once the ongoing drilling programme at Bibemi is completed.
