Many geologists, exploration companies and consulting firms carry out diligent and highly professional exploration programmes and evaluation studies, but never experience the satisfaction of involvement in the discovery of an orebody or the transition of a prospect to a mine. During more than three decades of work in many parts of the world, A C A Howe International Limited staff have had a remarkable success rate in the discovery and development of mineral deposits on behalf of their clients, indicating both strong technical capability and the economic acumen so necessary in mineral industry evaluations. This wide range of successful projects is summarised below:

	Geological reevaluation and reserve assessment of the Wheal Jane tin mine in Cornwall, England, after its closure by Consolidated Gold Fields leading to its reopening by Rio Tinto Zinc and successful operation for a further 13 years.
	Area selection, property acquisition, geological mapping, radiometric surveys and diamond drilling of the Jabiluka uranium deposit in Australia for Pancontinental Mining. Jabiluka is the largest high grade uranium deposit in the world, but has not been put into production due to Australian Government restrictions.
	Area selection, property acquisition and early exploration of a gold concession in the Ivory Coast for Eden Roc Minerals leading to the development of the Aniuri mine.
	Identification, property acquisition and exploration of the Mount Muro gold deposit in Indonesia for Jason Mining leading to its development by Ashton Mining at over 100,000 ounces per annum from mid-1994.
	Identification, Banka drilling, pitting, reserve estimation and development of the Ampalit alluvial gold mine in Indonesia for Jason Mining.
	Exploration and development of the Bernic Lake tantalum mine in Manitoba for International Chemalloy Minerals; at the time this was the largest tantalum mine in the world.
