Amani Gold Limited (ASX: ANL) has commenced RC drilling at its Kebigada South-East prospect in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The RC drill programme at the Kebigada South-East prospect will be targeting geophysical and geochemical anomalies in the area.
Previous IP surveys have outlined an anomaly area with a high chargeability and low resistivity. Soil sampling has also revealed an in-situ gold anomaly of >200ppb. The drill programme will be targeting high grade mineralisation on this untested anomaly. Drilling will involve RC holes spaced at 50m intervals along 3 drill fence lines 050S, 150S (not previously drilled) and 300S.
Following completion of the Kebigada South-East program will move to the Congo Ya Sika prospect.
“Following our successful diamond drilling campaign at our 4.1Moz Kebigada deposit we are very excited to progress to exploration drilling at neighboring high-grade Kebigada South-East and Congo Ya Sika deposits,” CEO Conrad Karageorge said.
About the Congo Ya Sika RC Drill Programme
The prospect is located approximately one km south east of the current resource area and comprises of high grade parallel subvertical narrow quartz vein sets in yellowish brown to purple saprolite.
High-grade gold mineralisation was found at the prospect during shallow rapid RC drilling completed in 2018:
• GRRC250: 6m @ 5.80g/t Au from 6m including 3m @ 10.9g/t Au from 9m
• GRRC254: 14m @ 5.12g/t Au from 37m including 4m @ 16.15g/t Au from 37m
• GRRC297: 3m @ 42.11g/t Au from 10m including 2m @ 62.65g/t Au from 10m
