AGG geologists describe both gold nuggets as being "local." These factors are indicative of the nuggets not having travelled very far from their respective points of origin. It is hypothesized that the gold nuggets were weathered out of a quartz-carbonate vein.

"Kobada shares a common characteristic of many established mining districts throughout the West African theater, that being the presence of extensive local artisanal mining. It is this feature or characteristic that has attracted the western miner(s) to the region, to test the depth extent of gold mineralization and in several instances, has resulted in world class mining projects - Syama, Sadiola and Siguri to name a few. The local population have been exploring and mining the Kobada region for hundreds of years and can still find new resources within sight of old workings," states AGG President, Michael A. Nikiforuk.
