Welcome to Reunion Gold Corporation
Reunion Gold Corporation is a mineral exploration company focused on acquiring and exploring mineral projects in the Guiana Shield region of South America. The Company has assembled a large, strategic land position in North-western Guyana and Eastern Suriname. Reunion Gold's shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "RGD".
In September 2010, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Reunion Manganese Inc., was awarded by the Government of Guyana four (4) prospecting licenses (PLs) to conduct exploration and development activities for manganese in the North West District of Guyana.
The PLs cover an area of 45,729 acres and are centered in and around the abandoned manganese mine at Matthews Ridge and Pipiani which was operated by a subsidiary of Union Carbide Corporation from 1962 to 1968. In excess of 1.66 million tonnes of manganese concentrate were shipped from the mine site during that period.
The Company is currently executing an exploration program which consists of trenching, geological mapping and drilling on the Matthews Ridge old mine area with the objective of delineating a resource compliant with Canadian national Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Geochemistry and geophysics, in particular a ground IP geophysical survey will be carried out outside of the old mine area to expand exploration targets.
The Company completed a $40 million bought-deal financing in April, 2011 and is well-funded to pursue its work program and advance the development of the Matthews Ridge project.
Under an option agreement with a state-owned mining company, Reunion Gold can acquire a 100% interest in an 82,850-hectare gold project located in the Lely Mountain area in Eastern Suriname. The Company conducted exploration activities on the Lely project until October 2008, when activities were suspended as a result of the financial crisis. Such activities have not yet recommenced.
