Mr. Fred Yao N’Kanza : well-connected prospector and exploration expert in Côte d’Ivoire, with a strong track record of success in the gold sector.
I brought extensive experience as a resources investor, particularly in gold exploration and development across Côte d’Ivoire. with deep understanding of the region’s geology with exceptional ability to identify promising opportunities in major discoveries and deals in Cote d’ivoire
I played a pivotal role in the early success of Tietto Minerals by vending in the Abujar Gold Project. my involvement was instrumental in helping the company develop the project into a globally significant gold resource of 3.8 million ounces at 1g/t Au. This achievement ultimately led to Tietto’s $733 million acquisition by Chinese mining giant Zhaojin Mining.
Beyond Tietto. I am currently the vendor behind Aurum Resources’ (ASX: AUE) projects in Côte d’Ivoire, which recently attracted a major investment of $35.6 million from the Lundin Family, Montage Gold, and Zhaojin Mining. Under Aurum’s stewardship, and with my foundational input as Country Manager, the Boundiali Gold Project has rapidly advanced from early-stage exploration (based on historical data) to a maiden resource of 1.59 million ounces at 1g/t Au — all within just approx 18 months of acquisition
