Executive Summary
The Tchitengo Technical Report details the diamond project located in the Lunda provinces of northeastern Angola. Lipari Diamond Mines Ltd. (LDM) completed the acquisition of 100% of SOPEMI in February 2023, securing rights to the Tchitengo concession which hosts kimberlite-hosted and alluvial diamond deposits. Historical exploration occurred between 2005 and 2014, but no mine development was completed due to diamond price declines affecting viability.
LDM initiated a fresh round of diamond project development in March 2024, focusing primarily on the Tchiuzo kimberlite. The report outlines a two-phase program including confirmatory core drilling and near-surface trench bulk sampling to verify historical data and establish a new mineral resource estimate. The Qualified Person has verified sufficient historical technical data to support this verification-style work.
Recommendations
A minimum of 12 steeply inclined core holes totalling 2,900 m is recommended for Phase-1 drilling to replicate prior results and verify the volume of the Tchiuzo kimberlite. The drill core will be sampled systematically for microdiamond assay by caustic fusion.
