WHO WE ARE
ABOUT UNIVERSAL RESOURCES INTERNATIONAL LIMITEDURI was incorporated in 2010, applied and was awarded an exclusive prospecting licence by the Government of Kenya in November 2011. The EPL covers an area of approximately 350km2 situated in Taita Taveta of the coast province, delineated on Voi Topo Sheet No SA-37-14.
The EPL allowed the company to carry out systematic pitting and excavations in the licensed area, subsequently undertook geological investigations in the licensed area, and conducted an EIA and a mine feasibility report. The same was carried out by reputable professionals. During the exploration on the 350 km2 tract of land, the rock was found to be rich in manganese with visible outcrops on the surface hence being suitable to commence a commercially viable mining operation. |

To be a leading global resources company of choice offering quality assured minerals.
