Mineral Deposits Limited gained the tenure , followed quickly by a similar successful tender for a gold project , also in Senegal .
While the gold mine took off immediately , Grande Côte was slowly developed in the background in regards to logistical planning , locating resourcing and carrying out feasibility studies ; all of which culminated in the key ownership agreement which has funded the project to where it is today .
Chief Executive Officer , Simon Finnis explained : “ Mineral Deposits Ltd ( mdL ) signed an agreement with erAMET , a large industrial company with an ilmenite smelter in Norway , as a joint venture partner .
“ mdL then merged the Grande Côte project
