Further encouraging drilling results from MB01-N
Oriole Resources PLC has announced further encouraging drilling results from the MB01-N target at its Mbe gold project in Cameroon, with holes MBDD034 and MBDD035 returning significant gold intersections, including 34.80m at 0.63g/t Au in MBDD034 and 8.70m at 0.81g/t Au in MBDD035. These results extend the system at MB01-N to approximately 194m vertical depth and remain open in all directions. Results for the remaining four holes are expected by the end of Q1-2026, with a maiden JORC Resource for MB01-N anticipated in Q2-2026, which will complement the existing 870,000oz JORC Resource at the nearby MB01-S deposit, where a step-out drilling programme is set to commence in Q2-2026.
