Exploration Metalic Work Program Guide Line

The document provides guidelines for submitting mineral exploration work program proposals in Ethiopia. It outlines the required sections which include an introduction describing the exploration objectives and area, previous exploration works conducted, the proposed methodology, environmental protection plans, resources and expenditure requirements. The methodology section details the geological, geochemical and geophysical studies to be performed including sampling, mapping, trenching, drilling and laboratory analyses. Tables are to be included summarizing the yearly work plan, time schedule, resource needs and estimated expenditures.
