Lake Victoria Gold (LVGLF) is evaluating a small-scale mining and processing opportunity at its wholly owned Tembo Project in northern Tanzania. The initiative aims to generate early cash flow by extracting and processing near-surface material using existing local infrastructure.
The project features multiple high-potential targets with significant near-surface gold intersections at Ngula 1, Nyakagwe East, and Nyakagwe Village. A privately operated Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP) plant has been commissioned nearby, with a second unit under construction, expected to reach a combined capacity of 620 tonnes per day.
Through its local subsidiary MIPCCL, LVG holds a Joint Venture interest in 20 Primary Mining Licences adjacent to its MLs. The company is preparing a non-binding Letter of Intent for a potential joint venture with the Processing Licence owner to mine and process material from both MLs and PMLs. The company cautions that this initiative is preliminary and not based on a feasibility study, carrying increased uncertainty and higher risk of economic or technical failure.
