Corporate Information

Viking Ashanti Ltd (Viking) was established in 2007 to explore for, develop and mine mineral deposits in West Africa. On 7 January 2010, Viking Ashanti entered into an agreement with two subsidiary companies of ASX listed Resolute Mining Limited to acquire 100% of the shares in Associated Gold Fields Pty Ltd (AGF), which holds shares in various Australian and Ghanaian subsidiary companies, which in turn hold the Resolute group’s mineral licences and joint venture interests in Ghana. These properties are located in the richly endowed Ashanti Gold Belt of Ghana and includes the Akoase East gold project with an inferred 500,000 oz gold resource.

The Viking mineral licences are located in southern Ghana, in one of the most highly gold endowed and tightly held geological provinces in the world, the Ashanti Gold Belt. Numerous multi-million ounce gold deposits are located within and on the margins of the Ashanti Gold Belt, including two of the largest gold deposits in the world, at Obuasi and Tarkwa.

Viking holds over 440 sq km of ground in three project areas, Akoase, West Star/Blue River and Nchiadi/Nyame Dzikan.
