Chilwa Minerals Identifies New Heavy Mineral Sands Target in Malawi

By

Chilwa Minerals (ASX:CHW) said hand augering and panning of material from shallow pits supported by interpreted geophysics identified a new heavy mineral sands target at Mpyupyu West in Malawi, within two kilometers of its Nakombe niobium-rare earth element discovery, according to a Wednesday Australian bourse filing.

Mpyupyu West target covers an area of around five square kilometers. The exploration efforts also identified a potential extension to the identified resources at Bimbi and Bimbi Northeast.

After a break in drilling due to Malawi's rainy season, resource drilling restarted with two sonic drill rigs.
