After an initial first day (Day1) of reconnaissance survey of the Moroko Property; Rocks/Outcrops visibilities, Rivers and streams occurrences and previous trenches done by some consultants prior and observations of artisanal works and pits, A 1km by 1km grid was planned over the whole Moroko Area using GPS Garmin Base Software, such that the grids lines and stations are already computerised and transferred to the GPS device to enable easier measurements on the field the next days. Soil sampling, rock mapping, magnetic survey and new trenches were done over the 1km square grid. There were 6 lines of measurements with a line separation of 200m and the station-station separations were 50m. Soil sampling was conducted with the aid of a manual auger specially procured in Canada from Deakins Industries, Vancouver, to enable easier drilling of the surface soils to a depth of 1-3m. Soil samplings were obtained on each line at interval of 50m and a total of 126 soil samples apart from the quality control samples/standard samples. All samples were sent to Acts Lab Canada for analysis. Analysis was done in June using enzyme leach code 7. Rocks were not much in the Moroko Region. Eleven (11) rocks samples were mapped ranging from ferricretes, clay stones, mud stones and quartzites. These were tested with UT1 (ultra trace), in Acts Lab Canada. Magnetic surveys were carried out on each line at a station separation of 50m and 126 readings each of Gauss and Tesla were both measured and processed and interpreted. These geophysical measurements were not effective in the identification of the mineralized targets. Four (4) preliminary trenches of 50m length were dug based on the anomalies of the magnetic readings above. More than 200 samples were mapped from the saprolitic regions, and these samples were analysed at Acts Lab using UT1 like the rock samples.
