Dolat to ‘mechanise’ Sierra Leone alluvial diamond project

Dolat Ventures, an exploration diamond development company focused on West Africa, said it is planning to channel initial resources towards its project in Sierra Leone in August.
“Dolat Ventures is very excited to finally begin mechanizing its diamond and potential gold mining operations in Sierra Leone,” it said in a statement.
“The company believes there is significant potential to enhance the existing geological data to support the rapid expansion of production which will help the company secure additional financing.”
Company president Dovid Hauck said Dolat Ventures had the necessary local support, knowledge and contacts to continue to implement its production strategy for the Baimbawai Pool project on the Sewa River.
“I have seen first-hand the high quality gemstone diamonds that have already been extracted from the mining concessions and the potential gold surrounding the claims for future mining activities in the region," he said.
Dolat said recently that it had planned to conduct a pre-feasibility study to better define the economics of the resource, prior to the onset of trial mining.
