## 2025.01.23 An interconnected formation of volcanic rocks shaped like a hill, approximately 20 meters high and 150 meters wide. Subsequent activity is indicated by the quartz veins running through the rocks. The large rocks belong to one of the granite families.
## 2025.01.25 Vertical excavation: The pencil is used for the geologists to observe the thickness of the quartz vein. This is a common practice for them, where they place a pencil or, near larger quartz veins, a geologist’s hammer alongside the vein. The image shows the quartz vein in its natural state.
## 2025.01.30 Latest results of the current drillings with larger circles on the map.
## 2025.02.18 Over the past weeks, our team—alongside both Hungarian and local geologists—has been conducting extensive surface sampling and analysis. This process is crucial in refining the exact location and coordinates for the upcoming mining site. 900 samples have been analyzed in professional labs, with the results now being integrated into our comprehensive geological report. This ongoing work ensures precision and efficiency as we move forward with development. ## 2025.02.20 **GGS Advances Gold Mine Development** In February, the GGS team began concrete preparations for developing the gold mine. A key milestone was a meeting in Nice, where Apraemio’s leadership and GGS experts held in-depth discussions with the CEO of Imagri SARL, a leading gold mine construction company in West Africa. The talks covered Mali’s evolving mining regulations and the next steps in project execution, marking significant progress toward mine development. Read more:
