(TSXV: ANK) (“ANGKOR”) is pleased to announce a significant gold discovery on one of our 5 100% owned tenements in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Drilling on the Phum Syarung Prospect, Oyadao South tenement has outlined a strike of 275m, open at depth, to the north and to the south on a linear north-south vein. Of the 8 holes drilled, 6 returned highly positive results, two of which contain noticeable quantities of visible gold. Of particular note is a 20cm section in PS12-013D depicted below. The best value, in PS12-018D shows 16.65g/t Au over 4.05m, and appreciable silver (17.4g/t), copper (0.62%), lead (2.13%) and zinc (2.01%) . This is not an isolated occurrence as the adjoining holes all show robust thicknesses and grades of gold and base metals (6.6 g/t Au over 3.2m; 4.7g/t Au over 2.3m; 5.1g/t Au over 3.3m) .These holes were all drilled on a single linear feature, originally discovered in 2010 in follow-up “scout” drilling on a ‘C’ zone soil geochemical lead-zinc anomaly which coincides with intense artisanal activity. This feature coincides with a strong surface electromagnetic (SEM) geophysical anomaly located this season, which was targeted for follow-up by holes PS12-012D and PS12-013D.
