Africa: Meya mine, Sierra Leone

SRK has been involved in the project since 2016, assisting in geology development and bulk sampling. The Meya project is a field of significantly diamondiferous, steeply dipping kimberlite dykes and is geologically associated with the Koidu Mine. One of the features of the Meya dyke is the presence of high-quality diamonds, including large, rare Type IIa diamonds. These diamonds are only recovered from three other primary diamond deposits globally. SRK and the Meya team are working to better understand the morphology of the dykes as well as the diamond grade and value for resource estimation and mining.
