SEEKING FOR A NEW
PARTNER
INTRODUCTION
• ENOR is an Algerian
company established
under the Algerian
law, which operates
two (02) gold mines
(Tirek and
Amesmessa).
• Our main shareholder is
the Algerian oil
company SONATRACH
(NOC), the first african
oil company.
GENERALITY
ENOR’s mines are located at about 450 km south -
west of Tamanrasset., the capital city of the Hoggar area.
It is a growing town with 100 000 inhabitants.
It has an international airport and a university.
ENOR’S CONCESSION WITH ITS GOLD MINES
ENOR has a mining
license with a total area of
105 850 hectares.
This permit covers a
significant shear zone of
several kilometers length.
It links the Archean
basement to the
Proterozoic formations.
GEOLOGY OF THE ENOR PERMIT
The Tirek and Amesmessa deposits
as well as the dozens of gold
occurrences or geochemical
anomalies, are controlled by a sub-
meridional regional shear zone, of
which the extension is known over
more than 50 km long and 2-3 km
wide ( ductile mylonites).
This shear zone links the Archean
granite-gneiss formations of the
“Mole of In Ouzzal” to the West,
and the Proterozoic formations to
the East.
THE GOLD MINERALISATION
Gold mineralization is quartz veins with pyrite, galena,
gold and rare sphalerite. These veins are interpreted as
shear veins (shear zone) and more rarely as vein of
tension gashes.
Compared to the major Archean gold shears (Kalgoories
– Australia, Gold Val – Canada) which concentrate their
deposits far from the major fault, the Pan African major
fault provides the specificity to hold the two deposits of
Tirek and Amesmessa in addition to other gold
occurrences, which can be their own extension.
THE AMESMESSA GOLD DEPOSIT
Discovered in 1975, the Amesmessa gold deposit is
represented by a dozen of veins areas extending over
approximately 12 km North-South. The main veins 8 and 9 of
this deposit as well as other satellite veins have been mined in
open pits since 2006, in partnership with a foreign partner.
The Amesmessa mine is currently in production.
Approximately 3.7 tons of gold were produced by the Heap
Leach.
On the basis of 43 430 m of DDH, and 800 m of underground
exploration work to the depth of- 80 m, and after expertise done
by SIDAM (Canada), the estimated gold resources of 16 gold
veins known in Amesmessa are approximately 1 400 000 oZ:

THE TIREK GOLD DEPOSIT
- The Tirek gold deposit is located at
about 64 km north of the
Amesmessa mine.
- It has been mined by open pits
from 2001 to [Link] ore was
processed by a small CIL plant built
by MDM (South Africa). About 1 800
kg (57 858 Oz) of gold was produced
by the CIL process.
- The Tirek mine is not operating
currently waiting for the studies
concerning the transition to mine this
deposit by underground operations
and building a new CIL plant.
THE TIREK GOLD DEPOSIT
The Tirek deposit is
characterized by a significant
lode device gathered in three
vein fields (A, B, C) spread over
an area of 11.5 Km2.
Between 1973 and 1987,
ORGM carried out on this
deposit an important DDH
program (44 00O m),
underground works (1300 m).
The estimated resources for the
Tirek deposit are presented in

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES OF THE ENOR’S
PERMIT
• Since 2004, ENOR has confirmed and defined the different
criteria controlling the gold mineralization at regional level by:
• The alteration interpretation of the data from the ASTER
satellite has allowed the identification 76 interesting targets .
The majority of these targets are located in, or near the
regional shear zone cross cutting the archean basement.
Some of them overlap already known occurrences.
• The air mag and spectrometric survey has also confirmed the
structural control of gold mineralization.
• ENOR has carried out a soil geochemical exploration and a
RC drilling program in order to check the Aster anomalies.
• Previously additional resources was estimated to 250 000
Oz.
ENOR’S NEW DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
WE WOULD LIKE TO :
Develop and increase the production capacity of our two
(02) gold deposits.
Launch an important exploration program in order to
increase known resources.
ENOR’S NEW DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
WE ARE LOOKING FOR :
Establishing a win-win partnership with a mining company with
exploration and mining experience of gold ores located in
shear zones.
A company having technical and financial capacities for the
development of mining operations in its two gold deposits
using underground and open pit methods.
ADVANTAGES OFFERED TO OUR FUTUR PARTNER
Financial contribution for the new development plan of
company’s deposits.
Tax advantages related to operation and mining in
accordance with the law in force
Competitive fuel prices
CONCLUSION
This document is a quick presentation of the Tirek and
Amesmessa gold deposits as well as confirmed gold
potentialities in an area with a very favorable archean
environment.
Our company has the support of its shareholder
SONATRACH to develop mining activity in our perimeter,
despite the inconclusive experience with our previous
partner.
We are ready to begin preliminary contacts with any mining
company possessing the required know-how and a strong
aim to develop a long term partnership with us.
