World's largest sediment-hosted Cu-Co province (Central African Copperbelt): ~152 Mt Cu identified in >80 deposits, with a USGS mean undiscovered estimate of ~168 Mt Cu — undiscovered resources slightly exceed known (Sourced: Zientek et al., 2014, USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2010-5090-T). Extension SW into Zambia/Angola under Kalahari cover remains mostly unsurveyed; Ivanhoe Western Forelands proving this.

Province attribution is stated on every asset record (the p field) — record-stated classification, no text inference. Whether record-stated platform classifications carry the formal Sourced label is an open editorial ruling; this page does not claim it. Contrast the country pages, where attribution requires the record to say so.
