The Kansanshi deposit was recently estimated to contain 267 million tonnes grading 1.28 percent Cu and 0.16 g/t Au, making it one of the largest Zambian copper deposits outside the copper belt. The Kansanshi deposit occurs within the Lufilian arc, a Pan-African fold-and-thrust belt that was active from Late Proterozoic to Late Cambrian.

From the beginning to nationalization (1928-1973) Although copper had been produced at Kansanshi and Bwana Mkubwa in 1908 and 1911, respectively, the first commercial mine in Zambia was established in Luanshya in 1928 (Roan Consolidated Copper Mines, 1978). Opening of other mines followed, as shown in Table II.

Calculation of reserves each borehole using the area of influence to the total volume is 390,000 tons and ore reserve calculations using Surpac is 314 796 tonnes.
Several mineral occurences, that include massive, disseminated and vein types of mineralization, are found in Paleoproterozoic rocks of the Mozambique Belt of Eastern Zambia. Mineralization associated with mafic igneous activity is presented by ilmenite in gabbros, whereas muscovite, aquamarine and tourmaline are mined from …
Abstract A range of geophysical techniques has been used at various stages of the discovery and delineation of the Kitumba deposit in Central Zambia. Early era magnetics, geologic mapping, artisanal Cu plays, and the application of an iron oxide copper gold (IOCG) exploration model led explorers to the area in the 1990s. An airborne gravity …
