The Koun-Fao permits PR1019 and PR1022, totaling 601.9 km\u00b2, were granted to Paleo Gold Fields on February 4, 2026. Koulou Gold holds an option to earn up to 100% interest in the project. The permits lie immediately south of Koulou’s Assu\u00e9fry Project and Endeavour Mining’s Assafou deposit and are underlain by Tarkwaian-like Koun Tanda Basin sediments and Birimian volcanic rocks within the same structural framework, with historical gold occurrences highlighting their prospectivity.<\/p>\n
