We've reported wide gold intercepts, including 𝟰𝟬𝗺 𝗮𝘁 𝟭.𝟬𝟯 𝗴/𝘁 𝗔𝘂, from step-back diamond drilling at BD Target 1, part of ongoing diamond drilling at our Boundiali Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa. Gold mineralisation remains open along strike and down dip, with mineralisation intersected down to 385m below surface. An IP survey has been completed to optimise drill targeting, and two more diamond rigs have arrived, increasing our fleet to six. We are targeting a drilling rate of 10,000m per month, aiming to exceed 45,000m in CY2024. An initial Mineral Resource Estimate for Boundiali is targeted for late CY2024. Managing Director Dr. Caigen Wang said: “We're delighted with another shallow, wide gold intercept at BD Target 1. Gold mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth, with intersects as deep as 385m below surface. Every hole we drill helps us understand the controls on the high-grade gold shoots we find within these wider intercepts. The new IP survey and structural data are guiding our drill targeting. With two new NOCK1300 diamond drill rigs operational, we're eager to test BD Target 1 down to approximately 900m. With six rigs on site, we expect to achieve ~10,000m drilling per month, systematically exploring the full potential of the 13km by 3km target zone at BD and our other tenements within the Boundiali gold project. We're also improving our operations with new vehicles, a centralised camp, and we are using a second laboratory to enhance efficiency and assay turnaround times. We're well-funded with ~$20 million cash at bank, allowing us to accelerate drilling and build on these encouraging results. We're targeting an inaugural JORC resource for Boundiali by late 2024.” Read the full ASX Announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gQ-kycs2 #gold #AUE #Aurum #WestAfrica #ASXNews #MiningNews
