HAR seeks to make further discoveries in the uranium and nuclear space in contemporary times and explores various ways through which, it can play a pivotal role in decarbonising the atmosphere.
Recent progress at Saraya Project
Strong uranium prospectivity has been highlighted at the Saraya Project via a technical review of historical exploration results. The results indicate not only high-grade mineralisation but also suggest substantial widths of uranium across several holes at shallow depths.

Recently, HAR has defined an Exploration Target for the Saraya project - 5-20 million tonnes of ore at a grade range of 350-750 ppm eU3O8 (4–35 Mlb contained eU3O8). The company believes that sufficient exploration has not been undertaken to estimate a Mineral Resource, and the potential quantity and grade of this target remains conceptual at present.
HAR now looks to initiate a maiden drill program in September and aims to convert this exploration target into a Mineral Resource.
Preparation commenced for the upcoming Saraya diamond drilling program, including:
- Establishment of a downhole probing procedure with a geophysical service provider
- Preparation of sampling protocols
- Ongoing discussions with local communities
- Securing a diamond drilling Contract with IDC Drilling
Gold exploration in Ivory Coast yields positive results
The company has completed an infill soil sampling program, covering parts of the Issia-Buyo permit with assay results received for 4,249 samples. The soil samples returned significant gold concentrations, clustered over both the Noukpoudou sheared corridor (up to 4.9 g/t Au) and the Buyo Lake shear zone (up to 10.0 g/t Au).
In late August, the company secured the highly prospective Ibel South gold permit in SE Senegal, which contains known gold anomalies from historical gold exploration. The permit sits within the Birimian Volcanics of the Kenieba inlier, which has reported more than 40 million ounces of gold in resources being mined or under development.
The overall experience of HAR comprises a significant tenure in running ASX-listed companies and funding, and advancing the mining and exploration projects in Australia, Africa, as well as other parts of the world.
HAR shares traded at AU$0.18 on 21 September 2022.
