Featured Project
West Africa Exploration Initiative (WAXI)
2006 – Present
The West African Exploration Initiative (WAXI) is focused on the mineral potential of the West African Craton. The aim of WAXI is to augment the exploration potential of the Leo-Man shield which extends over 12 countries in West Africa. The findings assist exploration companies to focus activities in areas of maximum prospectivity.
Aims
- Enhance the exploration potential of the African Craton through an integrated program of research and data gathering into its “anatomy”.
- Help train the next generation of West African explorers.
- Assist local Geological surveys and Universities in the region in their role of providing pre-competitive data and information.
