Projects

 

 

Project #1 Precious Metals Assessment of the South Western part of the Western Desert, Egypt

This is a USAID project through the  Egyptian Universities supreme council number 224 with Oklahoma University, Norman, U.S.A. The Project cover area around Gebel  Kamel and 200 km before the Oweinate Mountain at the south western corner of Egypt. Detailed Geologic map has been established. Remote Sensing, GIS, Ground Penetrating Radar measurement and Magnetic Susceptibility measurements have been employed.

The Geochemical Evaluation of the area is discussed.

 

 

Project #2Gold Base Metals Deposits Evaluation  of Southern Sinai, Egypt

This is a USAID project through the The Egyptian Universities supreme council number 229 with Utah University, Salt Lack City, U.S.A.

Promising Gold and Silver occurrences are the main output of this study. The genetic studies of this deposits will help future more discoveries in Southern Sinai.
