[{"type":"text","content":"\n\nPRESS RELEASE\n28 August 2024\nKAVANGO RESOURCES PLC\n(\"Kavango\" or \"the Company\")\nZIM Hillside Prospect 2 significant assay results and drilling update\nKavango Resources plc (LSE: KAV), the Southern Africa focussed metals exploration company, is pleased to announce further significant assay results from Prospect 2 (\"Prospect 2\") at the Hillside Project, Zimbabwe (\"Hillside\").\nBased on these results, and the other exploration achievements to date at Hillside, Kavango increasingly believes a wider mineralised system extends across the project area. As such, Kavango provides further details of its expanded scope and exploration drilling programme at Hillside.\nHighlights\n· Results from the three diamond holes completed at Prospect 2 (BRDD001, BRDD002 & BRDD003, collectively the \"Holes\") have returned what Kavango believes to be significant assay results.\no The Holes were designed to test for geological continuity of structures, both along strike and with increasing depth, as well as evaluating grade variation, within multiple shear zones hosting gold producing artisanal workings at surface.\no The Holes are considered to provide further evidence of a wider gold mineralised system that it believes extends across the Hillside project area.\n· BRDD001, previously reported, was drilled to a total depth of 400.40 m, and intersected an intensely deformed and well mineralised zone, 7.2 m wide, hosting gold and associated sulphides in anastomosing shears, at a relatively shallow depth.\no Best results* in the hole include:\n- 7.2 m @ 9.95 g/t gold from 50.64 m and including 1.61 m @ 31.57 g/t gold.\n- 2.00 m @ 2.12 g/t gold from 86.00 m.\n· BRDD002 was drilled to a total depth of 364.40 m and intersected several narrow shear zones where gold and associated sulphides were hosted in narrow quartz veins at 163 m and 263 m respectively.\no Best results* in the hole include:\n- 2.00 m @ 0.53 g/t gold from 163.00 m.\n- 1.00 m @ 3.73 g/t gold from 263.00 m.\n· BRDD003 was drilled under the historic Britain mine to a total depth of 355.40 m and intersected a series of shear zones, hosting gold and associated sulphides in anastomosing quartz veins, at various ...
