The license was granted on 21st August, 2024 to Unirate Investment's Limited after it had applied for the tenement. The area mapped by the Geological Survey of Zambia Department and compiled a Geological map at a scale of 1: 100000. The area lies in the Lufilian Arc, in which it has potential of hosting AMT, AQM, Au, Beryl, Co, Cu, EM,Fe, Pb, TML and Zn. The license area is located within Lundazi District, Eastern province, Zambia. It can be accessed via route T4 which runs from Lusaka to Chipata and has a total distance of approximately 573km after which join the M12 Chipata-lundazi road at about 73km. Branching off at Kawinga to Chikomene area.
