Location
The Rondonia project is located on
the Amazon Craton near the city of Ariquemes in Rondonia
State, Brazil. There are 97 claims covering
approximately 830,000 hectares of land. This project
involves 8 known kimberlites in three clusters of which
5 are diamond bearing.
  Ariquemes Kimblerlite Clusters
Strong Positive Indications of
Potential
-
On the Amazon Craton; Diamond
grades up to 47 cpht
-
At Ariquemes, 8 Kimberlites
identified by De Beers and BHP-Billiton
-
64 stream sediment samples
indicated several anomalies, at least 5 of which not
related to known kimberlites; High-chrome G10
garnets within the diamond window; evidence for at
least two separate emplacement events
-
Adjacent to Pimenta Bueno
Kimberlite Field
-
Airborne Magnetic Survey by BHP
Billiton in 2006; covered approximately one third of
the property
-
26.4 line-km of ground magnetics
over the located kimberlites confirmed the presence
of magnetic and non-magnetic pipes.
-
27,500 line-km of airborne
magnetics identified numerous anomalies that were
ground-proofed and some tested by auger drilling
