Project Areas
The “Pacific Rim of Fire” is noted for its discoveries of giant porphyry copper/gold ore bodies containing in excess of 40 million ounces of gold equivalent as gold and copper. These ore bodies include Grasberg in Irian Jaya, Ok Tedi and Frieda River on the PNG mainland, and Panguna on Bougainville . Solomon Gold directors believe the Guadalcanal geology indicates the project area could host ore bodies of similar magnitude. Independently, The South Pacific Applied Geoscience Commission (SOPAC) in 2001 concluded, in a review of the region, that “Solomon Islands was (is) perhaps the most prospective of the Pacific island nations for minerals after Papua New Guinea ” .
