Osena – Gold & Copper
626 km²
K92 – Kainantu Gold Mine
Exploration
South Pacific’s Osena Project, covering 626 km² of strategic ground, is located southwest adjacent to the Au-Cu-producing K92 Project in the mineral-rich Kainantu District. A major NE trending structural corridor known for high-grade Au-Cu-Ag veins is interpreted to extend into Osena’s land holdings. Priority prospects, Ontenu and Tirokave, are just 14 km apart, and more than half of the project tenure remains unexplored. 550 surface samples collected at the Ontenu Prospect in fall 2023 (previous management) now submitted for assaying. Additional surface sampling and exploration is planned for 2024.

626 km² of licenses adjacent to the Au-Cu-producing K92 Project in the Kainantu District, featuring a major NE structural corridor hosting high-grade Au-Cu-Ag veins
This corridor includes over 15 porphyry, skarn, and epithermal occurrences, with multiple mineralized NE structural zones extending across a 50×30 km district
Priority prospects Ontenu and Tirokave are just 14 km apart, with numerous additional targets identified across a distance of more than 45 km
Osena hosts more than 15 Au-Cu porphyry, epithermal, breccia and skarn occurrences with numerous targets across a distance of more than 45 km. Ontenu and Tirokave priority prospects are characterized by large mineralization and alteration footprints with coincident geophysical and topographic anomalies in complex structural settings. Additional surface sampling and exploration drilling is planned for 2024.
Strong evidence of potentially mineralized NE structural zones covers a broad 50×30 km district. The property hosts multiple, large Au-Cu mineralization and alteration anomalies (up to 6×3 km) associated with the intrusion of the Elandora Porphyry (a known mineralizing intrusive regionally).
