These targets represent new prospective zones for potential discoveries in close proximity to BBM, which have been drilled as part of a broader 18,000m drill campaign across multiple targets at the Project.The BBM discovery and its potential satellite targets reported in this release lie along the same structural corridor spanning over 15km, extending from Awalé's 100%-owned Fremen target in the southeast to the Lando target in the northwest. The satellite target program comprised 4 scout RC drill lines consisting of approximately 7 shallow RC holes per line over higher order geochemical anomalies within the BBM trend (see Figure 1 below). Each drill fence is targeting a potential satellite discovery within 1 to 3 kilometres of the BBM discovery zone. A recently completed Induced Polarization (\"IP\") geophysics survey along the BBM trend helped refine the drill program by delineating structural targets coincident with the Company's soil and termitaria anomalies. The RC drilling and IP surveys are a continuation of the previously announced 5km IP survey at the Fremen target (see February 11, 2025 news release). Assays from this program are expected in Q2 2025. The Company also eagerly awaits results from drilling at the Charger, Empire, Fremen, and Lando targets throughout the second quarter of 2025.\"Exploration is advancing rapidly at the Odienné Project, where the Compan...
