ABSTRACT:Gold developer West African Resources Limited (ASX, TSXV: WAF) is pleased to report further high-grade RC results from the M1 prospect, at its 100%-owned Tanlouka Gold Project, Burkina Faso. Managing Director Richard Hyde commented: “Ultra high-grade gold has been intercepted in diamond core drilling at M1 South with TAN16-DD044 returning 1m at 1107g/t within 18m grading 82.3g/t Au from 98m down hole. “Strong results were also returned from the deepest intercept to date with TAN16-DD045 returning 4m at 43.16g/t Au from 174m including 1m at 169.7g/t Au, confirming depth potential of the prospect. Diamond drilling at M1 South has continued to deliver high grade results at M1 South. TAN16-DD044 has returned the best intercept on the project to date returning 18m at 82.28g/t Au from 98m including 1m at 1107.5g/t Au. A further high grade zone was intercepted at 125m down hole returning 3m at 145.99g/t Au. TAN16-DD045 was drilled towards 020o through high grade mineralisation at the southernmost highgrade shoot, where late faulting has rotated mineralisation from northwest trending to almost eastmost trending. Structures measured in TAN16-DD045 support the current interpretation of steep c. 70o plunge of high grade shoots. Importantly, as shown in Photo 1, gold mineralisation is associated with the main deformation event (D2) which is seen elsewhere on the project (M5). Photo 1 shows the free nature of the gold mineralisation in TAN16-DD044 at 107m parallel to the dominant shear fabric, indicating gold mineralisation occurs during the D2 deformation event, therefore is likely to be persistent at depth.
