The Sewum Gold Project is a highly advanced exploration initiative situated in the Aowin district of Western North Region, Ghana. Located approximately 510 km northwest of Accra and 25 km southeast of Enchi, the project lies within a region renowned for its world-class gold deposits, including Newmont’s Yamfo, Newcore Gold's Enchi project, Newmont’s Ahafo projects, Asante Gold’s Bibiani, and Kinross’ Chirano.
Since acquiring the Sewum project in 2010, Morchekrom Gold Limited, in joint venture with Breakthrough Resources Limited and Lorando Mining Company Limited, has carried out a comprehensive exploration program. This includes geological mapping, digital compilation of historical data, auger geochemistry drilling, underground sampling, topographic surveys, and successful drilling campaigns totaling 2,582 meters. The historical development of the Sewum deposit has involved intermittent activity, with over 170,000 tons of ore mined at an average grade of 15g/t. Noteworthy historical drilling results include intersections of 1.4 meters at 14.87g/t and 2 meters at 18.8g/t. In addition, the property was soil sampled by Leo Shield Exploration in the late 1980s and by Redback/Edgewater Exploration in the mid-2000s. Trenching and pitting programs from these earlier campaigns confirmed gold-in-soil anomalies.
