Rome hits more high grade tin at Kalayi
Watch on YouTubeRome Resources #RMR continues to drill at its Kalayi prospect on the Bisie North project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and it continues to encounter high tin grades, albeit at this point indicated only by hand-held XRF survey. Nevertheless, the intercepts are wider too, so the combination of grade and width is very encouraging. One hole in particular stood out in this regard, and the company is now drilling below this hole to see if the mineralisation continues or increase. Rome's chief executive Paul Barrett tells us more.
