[{"type":"text","content":"Tembo Reports the Commencement of the First Phase of the 2022 Diamond Drilling ProgrammeVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 27, 2022) - Tembo Gold Corp. (TSXV: TEM) (\"Tembo\", or the \"Company\") - is pleased to announce that the first drilling of the 2022 program, at the Tembo project in the Lake Victoria goldfield in Tanzania, will commence during the first week of May.HighlightsDiamond drilling to commence in early MayDrill rig has been mobilized and is on siteTargeting previous good results, the drill holes are aimed to define structural controls to enable further targeted depth and strike extent drillingAn initial 13 drill holes comprising 2,280m of the total 7,000m 2022 program have been plannedNgula 1, with outstanding earlier results, will be the first to be drilled with four holes totalling 970mThirteen diamond-cored drill holes, comprising approximately 2,280 m of drilling, have been planned for this initial phase of the 7,000m drilling program. The drilling will take place at previously drilled targets, i.e. Ngula 1, Mgusu, Nyakagwe East, and Nyakagwe Village, and have been sited parallel to and or offset from well-mineralized historical drill holes. A summary of the drilling program and an overview of the drill hole localities is presented below.Table 1: Summary of Phase I Drilling ProgrammePlannedBHIDXYZPlannedDepth (m)Azimuth(o)Inclination(o)TargetNG00143650696473441246200180-60Ngula 1NG00243655096474491245500135-55Ngula 1NG00343669396472501245150180-60Ngula 1NG004436700964714212441200-60Ngula 1NE0014379909645030120015030-60Nyakagwe EastNE0024380589645240120028030-60Nyakagwe EastNE0034381129645333120012030-60Nyakagwe EastM00143724296453221216600-60MgusuM00243734096453361215800-60MgusuNV001436679964476012011900-60Nyakagwe VillageNV002436694964485012031300-60Nyakagwe VillageNV003436730964478512021800-60Nyakagwe VillageNV004436748964486112041200-60Nyakagwe Village Coordinate System: WGS84 / UTM Zone 36The drill holes are aimed to confirm the geological continuity and distribution of the mineralization, as well as to obtain comprehensive structural data to better understand, interpret and define the structural features that are controlling the distribution of Au, and the attitude and morphology of the mineralized zones, ultimately enabling a targeted resource drilling program to follow.
