Arrow Minerals Ltd (ASX:AMD) has started its partnership with Roxgold Inc (TSE:ROXG) (OTCMKTS:ROGFF) for the Hounde South Gold Project in Burkina Faso after the Canadian-based company satisfied all conditions precedent to a definitive earn-in agreement.
Roxgold can earn a 70% interest in the project after exploration expenditure of up to US$1 million (around A$1.4 million) in two stages over four years.
The project consists of two exploration licences, Fofora and Konkoira, adjacent to Roxgolds Boussoura permit in southwest Burkina Faso.

Arrow managing director Howard Golden said: “Arrow is very pleased to formally begin this exciting joint project with Roxgold in Burkina Faso.
“We have been enthusiastic about this section of the Hounde belt since we targeted the area in 2016.”
Golden said the prospectivity of the permits was confirmed by Roxgolds recent announcement in July of broad high-grade gold intersections at its adjacent Boussoura project.
He said: “Arow can now continue to focus its resources on its more advanced projects including the recent Dassa gold discovery, while working with Roxgold, a well-respected and successful miner and explorer with great experience in Burkina Faso.
“Roxgold owns the Yaramoko gold mine in the same geological belt as Hounde, as well as active exploration projects in Burkina Faso.”
