36 LOCATION OF PIG IRON OPPORTUNITY with ACACIA MINERAÇÃO The existence of magmatic injection titanomagnetite iron ore deposits in the Tete Suite has been known since the 1960 s BHR Investments (BHRIM), a wholly owned group subsidiary has entered into transaction to acquire in stages (via a farm-in work program) up to 70% of the highly prospective license 3788L ( Acacia or License 3788L ) in the Tete Province of Mozambique (the Project ). These deposits are located approximately 35km east of Tete, and are accessible via the road that links Tete to Malawi.
