Mutapa is a natural resources company engaged in the evaluation, acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties. Mutapa is presently active in the Springdale Peninsular area, northeastern Newfoundland, an area of 389 claims covering 6404 hectares and known as the Big Deer Pond property. Funds raised under the offering are to be used for drilling VLF, Transient EM (DEEPEM) and Magnetometer anomalies located by Mutapa during the winter of 1997.
Of prime interest is a definite bedrock conductor identified by a Transient EM geophysical survey along strike parallel to the Little Deer massive sulphide deposit. Two and possibly three 8-channel conductive horizons have been interpreted with a strike length of 1.5 kilometres.
The drilling of the 8-channel zones will commence approximately May 11, 1998. |
