[{"type":"text","content":"Angkor Resources Samples up to 32 gram/tonne Gold and Discovers New High-Grade Gold Zones at Andong Meas, CambodiaGrande Prairie, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - May 19, 2021) -  Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK) (OTC Pink: ANKOF) (\"Angkor\" or \"the Company\") announces its recent sampling at its 100%-owned Andong Meas high-grade gold epithermal property has returned up to 32 grams/tonne gold and it has discovered two new targets on the license.While the previously announced IP program is coming to completion over the next week, and trenching continues over an area showing multiple veining at shallow depths, two additional discoveries were made north of the center of Wild Boar while mapping. CEO Delayne Weeks commented, \"Each exploration step we take that gives us more mineralization over our targeted area increases the probability that we have a commercial quantity. So every trench, pit, and added area we find that carries gold grade moves the Company to increased shareholder value, and we are still only touching the shallow, near-surface levels. Add to that the previously-announced agreement with Tang Se communities means shareholders know the project can move towards a more advanced stage.\" Program HighlightsMapping at the Wild Boar epithermal gold target has resulted in the discovery of two additional structures displaying silicification and quartz veining. Structure One (shown below with dotted blue ring on the right), 450 metres north of Pit Line 1 and between lines 14-16 of the IP survey, returned 32 gpt gold from a recent quartz float sample, representing the highest-grade float sample collected north of the pit lines. Structure Two (map below dotted blue ring on the left), roughly 1000 metres northwest of Pit Line 1 and between IP lines 16-18, returned 2.32 - 6.06 gpt of gold. Trenching in the area indicates the veins are relatively flat lying. One vein was trenched for 38 metres west to east and is now being exposed to the north for 15 metres so far and a thickness of 10 cm - 30 cm. The only breaks in the vein are erosional. One sample of vein from the previous Pit program returned 7.7 gpt gold (all insitu pit samples are noted as ANK test pits).The IP close-spaced survey of 18 lines totalling 15.45 kilometres was recently completed targeting a depth of 150 metre and geology staff are reviewing the data.
