Tanzanite Mining Project for Sale – Merelani, Manyara, Tanzania

Location: Merelani, Manyara Region, Tanzania
License: PML 003824 NZ
Project Type: Small/Medium-Scale Tanzanite Mining Development

Project Overview

PML 003824 NZ presents a unique opportunity to acquire a promising Tanzanite mining project located in the world-renowned Merelani Tanzanite mining area in Tanzania. The project offers excellent potential for developing a new small-to-medium-scale mine, targeting virgin and unexplored mineralized zones.

Geological Highlights

  • The project area is strategically positioned within UTM Zone 37s (Arc 1960) 278185, 9606327.

  • Shaft development is designed at azimuth 199° and dip -37°, optimized to intercept the JW layer (host rock) at the shortest distance possible.

  • The mine plan targets deeper isoclinal folds (Fold Stack Four) and associated pre-lamp structures (drag folds), which remain largely unexplored and untapped.

  • In contrast, the upper fold stacks and lamp structures have been extensively mined by long-established operators, leaving significant untapped potential in deeper formations.

About Tanzanite

Tanzanite is a rare and highly prized blue/violet gemstone variety of zoisite, found exclusively in a 14 km² deposit area in Merelani, Tanzania. Due to its limited geographical occurrence, Tanzanite is regarded as one of the most unique and valuable gemstones globally, with rising demand across international markets.

Accessibility & Infrastructure

  • Located approximately 16 km from Kilimanjaro International Airport (KIA).

  • The mine is easily accessible via an all-weather road.

  • Arusha and Moshi are the nearest major towns, offering logistical and commercial support for mining operations.

Investment Opportunity

This project is ideal for investors seeking to:

  • Enter the lucrative gemstone mining sector with a licensed and documented project.

  • Develop a small-to-medium-scale mining operation with exploration upside.

  • Capitalize on the global demand for Tanzanite, driven by its rarity and limited supply.

Asking Terms

  • Full details, geological reports, and transaction terms are available upon request.

  • Serious buyers/investors only.
