Large artisanal workings were located on the Bisie ridge.
The Bisie Tin Project is operated by Aphamin Resources Corp., and extends in a southerly direction along Mpama ridge for approximately 14 km.
"The mineralisation at Mpama North site consists a number of narrow veins, blocks or dispersions of cassiterite hosted in a chlorite schist. The tin mineralisation is also strongly associated with copper, introduced in late-stage fractures." (https://www.mining-technology.com/projects/bisie-tin-project/)
