Extensive horizontally bedded near-surface and outcropping Capacete Formation, formed from the erosion and deposition of the volcaniclastic rocks of the Alkaline province of Alto Paranaiba
Preliminary work has identified continuous mineralised beds up to 7m thick showing elevated rare earth values of up to 1.0% TREO, including a high proportion of the permanent magnet rare earths; Neodymium, Praseodymium and Dysprosium.
Recently re-assayed core confirmed TiO2 grades consistently >15% and potentially economic Rare Earth Oxide grades of up to 1% TREO
Historical data for the Tiros Project includes:

1,033m of drilling from 21 holes within the 10 concessions
GPR Profiles – subsurface imagery
Aerial geophysical Magnetic and Gamma Survey
Geochemical database of 3,000 soils/rocks/chips
Remote Sensing Studies
Preliminary metallurgical studies on the Titanium beneficiation

Christopher Eager, CEO of Resouro, commented: “We believe that by bringing a potentially globally significant project into Resouro’s asset pipeline at a low upfront cost we provide a very exciting value opportunity for new and existing shareholders. Our portfolio of existing gold projects and the newly acquired exposure to strategic metals such as titanium and rare earth elements allows the company to benefit from the macro environment of rising gold prices and the push towards a more environmentally conscious future.”
