A District-Scale Opportunity
Vatu Aurum Project
The Vatu Aurum Project is a 367 km² district-scale gold exploration project located in Fiji’s mineral-rich Pacific "Ring of Fire." Positioned along the highly prospective Nubu Graben Fault, the project hosts multiple epithermal gold targets with strong geochemical and structural indicators of a significant mineralized system. With systematic exploration, including geophysics, geochemistry and drilling, Kalo Gold is focused on unlocking the project's full potential and advancing it toward discovery.

Ring of Fire
The Pacific "Ring of Fire" is a mineral-rich region known for hosting world-class gold and copper deposits. Its intense volcanic and tectonic activity creates ideal conditions for high-grade epithermal gold systems. Positioned within this prolific belt, Fiji offers immense exploration potential, and Kalo Gold is focused on unlocking its value.

Unlocking the Deeper Potential
Aurum Prime
Aurum Prime is a highly prospective 12 km² target within the Vatu Aurum Project, positioned along the Nubu Graben Fault. Early exploration has identified multiple gold targets with strong geochemical and structural indicators. Ongoing work, including soil sampling and trenching, aims to unlock its full potential.

Namalau Trend
The Namalau Trend is a high-priority exploration corridor within the Vatu Aurum Project, featuring multiple newly identified epithermal gold targets. Spanning greater than 1.5 km, this trend hosts strong geochemical anomalies and hydrothermal sinters, key indicators of a significant gold system. With ongoing sampling, mapping, and drilling, Kalo Gold is focused on defining its full potential.

Selenium in Soils
These findings suggest strong potential for a well-preserved epithermal gold system at depth. Ongoing exploration, including detailed mapping, geochemical analysis, and drilling, aims to further define the extent of mineralization and unlock high-grade gold zones within the Namalau Trend.

Potassium in Soils
By integrating soil geochemistry with geophysical data and structural mapping, Kalo Gold is refining drill targets to test these deep mineralized zones. Ongoing exploration will focus on confirming the relationship between potassic depletion centers and gold-bearing hydrothermal systems, further unlocking the potential of the Namalau Trend.

Sampling Finds
Soil geochemistry reveals potential upwelling zones where acidic fluids deplete potassium, creating low-value “potassic depletion centers” surrounded by higher values linked to argillic alteration.
