Two in one.
The two sites are bordering each other making it possible to consolidate operations of both license areas. The one site lends itself to alluvial free gold extraction while the other is open pit extraction based because of gold bearing quartz veins and ultimately encapsulates the gold motherload.
Our initial focus is the immediate exploration of our alluvial areas to start extracting the free gold from the riverbeds within our exploration area being alluvial mining as per our bankable business plan. This business plan is specifically based on gold Dore bar production from the alluvial mining however, our Large-Scale Exploration licenses include multiple mineral deposits found within our licensed area as indicated by the Zambian geological and mineral occurrences map. This effectively means that Phoenix Mining Services Limited Zambia will at the time of mining extract other minerals such as Cobalt, Copper, Zinc, Manganese, Iron-Ore, Silver, Lead, Quartz, Garnet, Tourmaline, Aquamarine, Anhydrite, Gypsum and Coal over and above the principal mineral being gold.
The second phase will be focused on the exploration of the mountain areas as we know that the gold -motherload must be present within our Large -Scale Exploration area based on geological facts. The mountains are rich in quarts veins containing gold. The gold within these quartz veins were weathered loose from the quartz and carried downstream in hundreds of slope-bound torrential creeks that flows from the mountains into the larger rivers traversing our exploration area. These riverbeds are up to 160 meters wide containing free gold deposited via the slope-bound torrential creeks. This free gold was deposited over a period of thousands of years accumulating in the bottom of the riverbeds within the bedrock because gold has a high density , and water streaming motion manipulates the gold to sink deeper into the sand till it lands on solid rock formations or trapped in very dense silt.

The image shows the mountainous terrain where open pit mining will take place after completion of the exploration phase having captured all relevant geological mapping and sampling data sets
34523-HQ-LEL bordering 34522-HQ-LEL on the right, however, clearly shows the main contributing river streams which are formed by means of the slope-bound torrential creeks that flows from the mountains. 34523-HQ-LEL being phase one because of the relatively low cost of extracting the free gold from the riverbed by means of feeding the sands into a gold extraction plant. This plant being turn-key extracts the free gold from the sand by means of gravity separation because of the weight factor of the free gold. The gold is then concentrated and processed to Dore -bars.
Environmental.
Reducing our environmental footprint to the minimum
-
Regelation within the mining and minerals exploration sectors of Zambia and everywhere else in the world has it that a company must have an environmental management plan for each phase of a project to mitigate possible negatives and minimize the footprint left by the project to the absolute minimum. Based on that environmental management plan the department of environmental affairs will first issue an environmental authorization to the company before the project will commence.
Community.
– Continue to deliver value through our social programs in the communities in which we operate.
Zambia is landlocked and development is slow especially in the rural areas. Being Africa goodwill is paramount, appreciation and recognition for genuine involvement towards development and community upliftment programs secures any companies future growth and prosperity.
Corporate Socio-economic Responsibility.
Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia Corporate Socioeconomic Investment programs. The inspiration behind us to bring much needed meaningful and sustainable socio-economic development to communities in need. Ensuring a rural community with a stable socioeconomic environment for the future.
A generous percentage of the annual turnover of Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will be invested on various Socioeconomic Development initiatives within our immediate effected communities. These project initiatives will be managed and sustained for the life of Phoenix Mining Services Ltd. We will have a dedicated team including management specifically appointed to this very special, priority responsibility.
All projects will be based on needs analysis as well as well considered community requests. The project teams will consist of both Phoenix Mining Services Ltd personnel and community representatives as chosen by their respective community leaders.
Priority-Fresh water.
We will establish freshwater boreholes with pumps within strategic positions of all communities. Water is life and we who take it for granted by opening a tap must feel lucky. Some people walk up to 8km’s to fetch river water to use in households
Mobile Clinics.
Primary healthcare is paramount. Zambia rural districts being underdeveloped means that the rural areas seriously lack healthcare facilities. With close collaboration and obtaining a mandate from the Zambian department of health Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will provide mobile clinics to the communities within our operational areas to provide this very necessary primary healthcare. The department of health will identify and present the qualified health personnel and medicines Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will maintain the vehicle and its equipment.
Pre-Primary Development.
The children in the village-communities of our operational areas are in need of early development facilities. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will establish these needed facilities in collaboration with the Zambia department of education.
School Libraries.
Most of the schools within these village-communities does not have library facilities, Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will establish these needed facilities in collaboration with the Zambia department of education.
Butchery.
Hygienic slaughtering facilities and butcheries are needed to ensure that communities may purchase meat that is hygienically prepared. These meat facilities will purchase the meat from the owners within the small farmer development project. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd will establish these needed facilities to develop a health-conscious environment
Bakeries.
Bread that is universally seen as a basic daily food source are not easily obtainable in these rural villages. This because of lack of facilities. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd will establish these needed facilities to bring this basic food source to the communities within our operational areas.
Maize Milling.
Maize plays an intricate part of the African food culture. Maize is ground down to almost a powder form and boiled to a thick consistency. The grounding is done by either stone or huge mortar and pestle like tools. This takes strenuous effort to prepare enough to feed one average size village family. Also, it is not always done in the ideal hygienically correct environment. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd Zambia will establish these needed facilities in order to produce milled products to be available to all these communities.
Skills development and jobs creation for woman.
In Zambia the literacy rate of woman is quite low, especially in these rural communities. The woman is mostly unemployed looking after the children because their husbands are working in the towns or cities. This has a result that only one of the parents are earning an income. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd will establish skills development centres like sewing/ clothing manufacturing. Other skills development projects for men and woman will also be implemented as funds and resources become available.
Creating Casual Jobs through environmental rehabilitation.
Communities in the rural areas are facing the reality of no job opportunities because of underdevelopment. This means that the adults must become migrant workers in the towns or cities close by or even far away cross border to earn incomes to support their families. The development of our mines will bring much needed job opportunities in some areas. Although mining is a job specific industry, we did develop a strategy to employ as much people as economically possible. This by means of a very active environmental rehabilitation management program. This includes the development and management of a few Jatropha Curcas plantation projects in order to harvest the fruits for the production of biodiesel and feeding stock for cattle.
Socio-Economic Growth Projects.
Small scale Farming: – poultry-egg, sheep, pig, cattle and fish.
Small scale Farming: – Fresh produce fruit, vegetables maize and others. Phoenix Mining Services Ltd will establish these needed facilities in collaboration with the Zambia department of agriculture.
COMMUNITY BASED SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC GROWTH PROJECTS
All of the above will be implemented with the goal of creating and developing an economic hub. Establishing the seeding for a new micro economy that is functional in creating incomes by means of interactive community trade. Stimulating growth and prosperity, and importantly supporting health and education towards a better tomorrow for these communities in need.
