Sep 26 2000 1:47:42 Mr. Basil Pantages reports Caesars Explorations has made a major discovery of precious gems in mineral-rich Tanzania. According to a report prepared by Mitchell Geological Services Inc., of Vancouver, the mining consultants engaged by Caesars to conduct explorations activity on a 10-square-mile area on the Muhuwesi River, southeast of Tanzania, East Africa, all the samples taken from nine test pits carried gemstones. The total gemstones recovered from the test pits amount to 347 grams. They included garnets, pink, purple and blue sapphires, rubies, green chrysoberyl, and tourmaline. Gold was also discovered and there are indications it may be of commercial quantity. Diamonds are also present in the Muhuwesi River, but no testing has been undertaken yet by Caesars Explorations to determine quantities. Based on the projected gemstone quality and quantities from the nine test pits, the Mitchell Geological report estimates the total commercial value for gemstones is in the $100-million to $200-million range. Gemologist Dr. Nakara S.E. Matemu (FGG registration No. 802/97) was engaged for the initial evaluation. A 15-man crew headed by engineer Marvin Mitchell, president of Mitchell Geological Services, worked on the projects. Caesars Explorations is evaluating other mining projects on the Muhuwesi with a view to ownership or joint-venturing with native groups. According to the Mitchell Geological report, collectively, these projects should be able to maintain a $10-million annual gemstone production level.
