DDMan-20-89 intersected 4.78gpt over 24m from 7.5m including 32.9gpt over 2m which is a New Discovery Zone 150M West of the Main Mankouke South Discovery Area. This hole appears to outline another parallel system to Mankouke South and highlights the potential to expand the resource footprint to the west. The new discovery area lies directly on trend to the strong geomagnetic signature of Mankouke West, our KN1 discovery area and Kabaya, further to the NE. This new discovery reinforces the importance of our recent acquisition of the Mankouke West land package which will be a core focus of our 2021 target prioritization work.In addition to our new discovery, recent drilling encountered multiple significant intercepts in Fresh Rock deeper in the Southern Mankouke Zone. DDMan-20-86 (Figure 1 and Figure 2) intersected 2.36 gpt over 30m from 162.5m. DDMan-20-85 (Figure 1 and Figure 2) intersected 6.01gpt over 7m from 154.3m including 18.0gpt over 2m from 158.3m with the deepest part of the hole intersecting 1.2gpt over 18M from 263.3 to 281.3m increasing the true vertical depth of our Mankouke discovery to 220m and remains open at depth (Figure 3). During the rainy season due to seasonal access issues, we had only 1 rig on Southern Mankouke but now plan to move a second diamond drilling rig to into the area to further expand upon this new discovery zone.Drilling Highlights: - Diamond Drill Holes4.78 gpt gold over 24m from drill hole DDMAN21-89 from 7.5m Including 18.1 gpt gold over 1m from 23.5m And 32.9 gpt gold over 2m from 28.5m2.36 gpt gold over 30m from drill hole DDMAN21-86 from 162.5m6.01 gpt gold over 7m from drill hole DDMAN20-85 from 154.3mIncluding 18.0 gpt gold over 2m from 158.3m 1.2gpt gold over 18m from 263.3mNotes: 1: True width yet to be determined, 2: Table 1 - Assay Highlights, 3: 0.5gpt used as cut-off with 4m internal dilution f...
