The Munali Nickel Project is 100% owned by Albidon Project Description The Munali Nickel Project is located 60 kilometres south of Lusaka , the capital of Zambia . The BFS is based solely on the Enterprise Deposit which is located at the southeast corner of the Munali Intrusion. The BFS has not taken into account possible future production from the Inferred Resource portion of the Enterprise Deposit nor any potential future resources in the Voyager and North West target zones which are presently being drilled. The Enterprise mine will be an underground operation accessed via a shallow (25m deep) ‘boxcut' excavation leading to a nominal 5.0m x 5.5m decline at a gradient of 1 in 7, providing access to the ore at 22.5m sublevels. The planned mine design utilises highly mechanised up-hole benching and long-hole open stope mining methods, resulting in efficient ore extraction and low mining costs. These mining methods allow for mining from the top down which maximises early production of ore. The ore will be processed through a conventional flotation concentrator, comprising a simple crushing and grinding circuit, rougher, scavenger and cleaner flotation cells, followed by concentrate and tailings thickeners, producing a high grade nickel, copper, cobalt and PGM concentrate for sale to a smelter.
