About the Project
The Jerooy Gold Deposit is located in the Talas District of the Talas Region, 320 km from Bishkek via the Tuy-Ashu and Otmek passes. The nearest village, Kara-Oy, is 2.3 km from Jerooy and connected by a dirt road. The city of Talas is approximately 70 km away from the deposit.
The region features a rugged high-mountain terrain with elevations ranging from 500 to 800 meters. The climate is sharply continental, with snow falling in early October and lasting until late May or early June.
Jerooy is classified as a gold-quartz deposit. Gold is concentrated in veins, veinlets, and metasomatic quartz zones. The central part of the deposit comprises rich quartz-vein ores.
Reserves of Jerooy
Discovered in 1969, Jerooy's reserves as of January 1, 1984, were recorded at 12,376.6 thousand tons of ore and 81,428 kg of gold (C1 + C2 categories), with additional off-balance reserves of 3,250.3 thousand tons of ore and 1,868 kg of gold (C1 category).
As of January 1, 2016, the reserves were updated to include 88,231 kg of gold (C1 + C2) and off-balance reserves of 17,322 kg. Silver reserves were reported at 24,349 kg (C2) and off-balance reserves of 6,004 kg.
Investment Opportunities
The project is valued at £1.3 billion, with an estimated deposit volume of 490 tons and a projected volume of 740 tons. Situated within the Maimak Free Economic Zone in Kyrgyzstan, near the oil refinery project site, the Jerooy gold deposit offers significant strategic and economic advantages. The project is owned by Temirlan-Oil, which is open to financing proposals.
