Geology
 The Sadiola Deposit lies within the Birimian Inlier of the Kayes – Keneba Window
SADIOLA HILL

(Proterozoic)
 The deposit is Mesothermal Shear hosted, originating from the Sadiola Fracture
Zone, a local splay off the regionally significant Senego-Malian Shear Zone
 Gold occurs disseminated in a highly altered succession of metasediments, mainly
de-carbonated marbles, overlain by silicified metapelites and basic intrusives.
 Two main ore types occur being:
 Soft Ore in altered and weathered rock
 Hard Ore in Calcitic Marble

 The Soft Ore is the focus of the current LOM Plan which includes:
 Oxides (Laterite and pisolitic clays, mottled clays and saprolite)
 Partially oxidised saprolitic ore
 Sulphidic saprolitic ore
