Kasbah Resources Ltd is making a detailed examination of an option of a small scale startup, on the basis of a modest investment, tin production in its Achmmach project located in the north of Morocco.

Wayne Bramwell, Managing Director of the company which is listed on ASX, explained, in the quarterly report ending in September on this project, published on 16 October, that the approach envisaged is focussed on the exploitation of high content resources with a modest annual speed of processing.

He specified that if successful, this approach would be a springboard for the extension of the mine and the achievement, later, of a processing rate of 1 million tons per year during the life of the mine project.

The Achmmach project consists of two exploitation permits covering in total 32 kn2 in the west of the province of El Hajeb, in the north of the kingdom. Kasbah Resources Ltd owns 75% and plans to start, in 2016, production with an objective of 1 Mtpa. It ranks the project among the largest tin mines in the world and presents it as the largest on the African continent.
