| ABSTRACT: | Gold developer West African Resources Limited (ASX, TSXV: WAF) is pleased to report further high-grade drilling results from its Sanbrado Gold Project, Burkina Faso. Managing Director Richard Hyde commented: “The first step down hole at M1 South has intercepted visible gold in two zones at 680m and 695m down hole respectively, demonstrating the high-grade system is still open and fertile at depth. “Deep drilling at the southern end of M5 has returned strong results at depth returning 11m at 4.5 g/t Au within 26m at 3.0 g/t Au. “Infill drilling being completed within the proposed M5 open pit reserve will improve grade and category with diamond drilling returning 23m at 7.2g/t Au and 14m at 7.7g/t Au from 90m. “The Company is on track to release an updated Feasibility Study incorporating open pit and underground mine schedules in mid-2018.” Drilling at M1 South is targeting vertical extensions of high-grade mineralisation at more than 550 vertical metres below surface. The primary aim of this drilling program is to extend mineralisation at depth and demonstrate that M1 South remains an open fertile high-grade gold system, as each previous step-down program has done since early 2016. The first of these holes has intercepted visible gold mineralisation, 80m down dip of TAN17-DD166B which returned 13.5m at 18.21 g/t Au from 575m including 1m at 131.9 g/t Au and 2.5m at 43.97 g/t Au from 614m including 1m at 83.9 g/t Au. Photos 1 and 2 show mineralisation at 680m and 695m in TAN18-189 respectively. Drilling is ongoing targeting mineralisation along strike to the southeast at the same vertical depth. | |
