African Consolidated Resources Plc Opportunities in Zimbabwe have the potential to build a larger resource than normal due to its perceived risk profile Why Zimbabwe? ACR – Exploration, Mineral Resources, Research & Production
African Consolidated Resources Plc Zimbabwe: Sovereign Risk Profile Political risk vs. Opportunity Companies operating / exploring in Zimbabwe : • Zimplats (Impala Platinum) • Aquarius Platinum • Anglo-American • Rio Tinto The perceived risk has created numerous opportunities! Zimplats share performance March 05 to March 06 (red line) ACR – Exploration, Mineral Resources, Research & Production
African Consolidated Resources Plc Geological Profile Clear Opportunity Calls Zimbabwe Craton: - Archaean granite-greenstone terrane similar to Western Australia & Canada. The quality of the geological land projects available is of a huge advantage when on the acquisition trail Hundreds of years of mining history. Very little use of modern, proven exploration techniques applied for past 30 years! ACR – Exploration, Mineral Resources, Research & Production
