2023 Spirit to Acquire Atieli Prospect

February 22, 2023: Spirit Mining entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a 100% unencumbered interest in the Atieli prospect from Pinsapo Kenya Ltd. The Atieli prospect, spanning approximately 12 km2, is located in southwestern Kenya.



  • Initial exploration of the Atieli prospect indicates the presence of several high-grade quartz veins
  • Preliminary scoping level estimates have projected an in-situ Au resource of > 40,000 troy oz, having delineated approximately 100,000 tons of quartz ore with an average grade of 10+ g/t and up to 45 g/t
  • The Atieli prospect is contiguous to one of Spirit's existing licenses with an area more than 100 km2, making it a strategic and valuable addition
