About
Alexander
Nubia
International
Inc.:
Alexander
Nubia
(TSX-V:
AAN)
is
in
the
business
of
exploring
for
and
developing
of
economic
gold
and
copper
deposits
in
the
Central
Eastern
Desert
of
the
ANS.
The
Company's
100%-owned
concessions,
Abu
Marawat
and
the
Fatiri,
between
them
cover
2,772
km2
of
underexplored
ground.
Evidence
of
gold
and
copper
mining
on
the
concessions
dates
the
many
surface
workings
to
pre-historic
(Copper
Age)
and
Old
Kingdom
(Pharaonic),
through
Ptolemaic
and
Roman
and
into
Early
Arab
times.
Several
historic
gold
mines
and
numerous
gold
showings
and
gossans
occur
within
the
two
concessions.
The
Eastern
Desert
is
host
to
a
number
of
historically-significant
gold
mines.
The
world's
oldest
gold
mine
map
for
Wadi
Hamad,
the
Turin
Papyrus
Map,
was
prepared
for
Ramesses
IV;
it
dates
to
1,160
BC
and
describes
the
wadi
(dry
river
bed)
routes
to
these
important
gold
mine
sites.
The
Sukari
gold
mine,
controlled
by
Centamin
[TSX:
CEE]
was
a
historical
gold
mine,
dating
back
to
New
Kingdom/Ptolemaic
and
Roman
age.

Sukari,
located
300
km
to
the
South
of
Abu
Marawat
Concession,
contains
7.7
Moz
of
proven
and
probable
gold
reserves
at
1.05
g/t
Au.
Gold
production
began
at
Sukari
in
2009;
forecasted
production
for
2015
is
420,000
ounces
of
gold
at
a
cash
cost
of
$700
per
ounce.
Gold
recovery
is
88%
and
head
grade
is
1.40
g/t
Au.
Gold
mineralization
at
Sukari
has
been
intersected
to
depths
of
1,350
m
below
the
wadi
surface
(source:
Centamin
website).
Abu
Marawat
and
the
Fatiri
concessions
are
underlain
by
a
Proterozoic-aged
Pan-African
greenstone
belt
of
the
ANS,
which
has
been
intruded
by
at
least
two
main
ages
of
granodiorite
intrusions.
Gold-
sulphide
mineralization
is
of
the
mesothermal
(orogenic),
quartz-carbonate
vein-type
and
is
associated
409171 v2
-2-
with
major
NNW
and
NE
trending
shear-zones.
Alteration
includes
epidote
(distal),
carbonate
(intermediate)
and
sericite-quartz
(proximal).
Similar
geological
settings
include
the
greenstone
belts
of
the
Yilgarn
of
Western
Australia,
the
Birimian
of
West
Africa
and
the
Abitibi
in
Quebec,
Canada.
The
ANS
covers
both
sides
of
the
Red
Sea
and
includes
parts
of
Egypt,
Saudi
Arabia,
The
Sudan,
Eritrea
and
Ethiopia.
Significant
VMS
deposits
in
the
ANS
include
Barrick
[TSX:
ABX]
and
Ma'aden
50:50%
JV
of
Jabal
Sayid
in
Saudi
Arabia,
Nevsun
[TSX:
NSU]
Bisha
Main
and
Harena
in
Eritrea,
La
Mancha's
Hassai
and
Hadal
Awatib
in
the
Sudan,
and
Sunridge
[TSX:
SGC]
Emba
Derho,
Debarwa
and
Adi
Nefas
in
Eritrea.
An
example
of
the
size
and
grade
of
these
deposits
is
La
Mancha's
HadalAwatib
East,
which
has
54.2
Mt
of
Indicated
Resources
in
primary
sulphide
mineralization
at
grades
of
1.0%
Cu,
1.11
g/t
Au
and
0.8%
Zn,
and
13.25
Mt
of
Inferred
Resources
at
1.2%
Cu,
1.0
g/t
Au
and
0.5%
Zn
and
has
a
strike
length
of
2,500
m,
mineralization
widths
of
up
to
100
m,
has
been
drilled
to
400
m
and
geophysics-projected
depths
of
mineralization
to
900
m.
