Kanona Project

The Kanona Project is located between the towns of Serenje and Mpika of Central Zambia. The project is approx. 80km from Serenje, 5km from the Tazara Railway line and close to the Great Northern Highway.

Dendritic (pyrolusite) manganese and goethite is wide spread in the area, and the presence of manganite, pyrolusite and rhodocrosite (observed as re-stained quartz vein) has been identified across the project area. Most of the notable manganese mineralization is in siliceous veins. Historical work within the project area has identified a number of manganese occurrences as vertical quartz pyrolusite veins of up to 3m width and extending over several hundred metres.
