Banro Corporation is a Canadian gold mining
company focused on production from the Twangiza mine, which began commercial
production September 1, 2012, and completion of its second gold mine at Namoya
located approximately 200 kilometres south of the Twangiza gold mine. The
Companys longer term objectives include the development of two additional
major, wholly-owned gold projects, Lugushwa and Kamituga. The four projects,
each of which has a mining license, are located along the 210 kilometre long
Twangiza-Namoya gold belt in the South Kivu and Maniema provinces of the
Democratic Republic of the Congo. Led by a management team with extensive gold
and African experience, the initial focus of the Company is on the mining of
oxide material, which has a low capital intensity to develop but also attracts a
lower technical and financial risk to the Company. All business activities are
followed in a socially and environmentally responsible manner.
