RRHI Explores the Dodge Mine

Raptor Resources is in the mineral resource acquisition, exploration, development, production, and distri-bution business.

Raptor Resources serves as the holding company for Mabwe Minerals, a natural resources and hard as-set company occupied with the mining, logistics, and sale of industrial minerals and metals. Raptor Re-sources owns 90 million shares, or approximately 64%, of Mabwe Minerals’ issued and outstanding shares of common stock, a notable share of the company. Raptor Resources and Mabwe Minerals are focused primarily on recovering barite and limestone from the Dodge Mine, which is based in Zimbabwe.

In line with Raptor Resources’ other existing projects, which are at various stages of production and de-velopment, the Dodge Mine represents the company’s ongoing interests to commercialize various indus-trial minerals and metals. Raptor Resources is also interested in developing greenfield resources and bringing them into commercial production, in exploring new minerals and metals, and in finding tested mining opportunities and other feasible hard assets that have the potential of bringing in additional reve-nue.

The Dodge Mine property is a chain of hydrothermal mountains that span 481 hectares or 1188 acres and stretch across 4.5 kilometers. Studies of the property have revealed the presence of compound barite, limestone, and talc deposits. Extensive occurrences of gossan deposits, which indicate the presence of gold, copper, lead, zinc, and nickel, have also been noted.

Dodge Mine is in the early stages of producing barite and limestone for commercial use. The barite de-posits alone have been deemed top-notch quality-wise because they contain a high percentage barium sulfate (BaSO4). Samples of the white barite recovered from Dodge Mine have scored 97.25% pure Ba-SO4 while pink barite samples have scored 95.50%.

Both the limestone and barite from the Dodge Mine have a multitude of applications. Barite is a crucial ingredient used to prevent well collapse in oil and gas drilling. It also has applications in the paint, auto-motive, medical, chemical, and industrial fields. Limestone is a key ingredient that could be sold locally for use in Portland cement. It also has applications in road and foundation aggregates and feedstock as well as in agricultural, beverage, and sugar companies.
