[{"type":"text","content":" TORONTO, April 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roscan Gold Corporation (“Roscan” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ROS) is pleased to announce the results of the latest drilling completed at the Mankouke area of the Kandiole project. The mineralized zone outlined in Air Core (AC) line 7 (Mankouke discovery – news release January 24, 2019) was followed up to the north and south with AC drilling lines. This AC drilling confirmed the strike extension of the zone to both the north and to the south. The Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling conducted in the mineralized zone resulted in poor recovery and this area is being immediately followed up with diamond core drilling. All drilling information is shown on the accompanying maps and sections. HIGHLIGHTS 6.39 g/t gold over 6 metres (including 7.46 g/t gold over 2 metres) - AC 2.26 g/t gold over 8 metres (including 3.35 g/t gold over 4 metres) - AC 1.85 g/t gold over 16 metres (including 3.25 g/t gold over 6 metres) - AC 1.68 g/t gold over 8 metres (including 2.30 g/t gold over 5 metres) - RC 2.60 g/t gold over 3 metres (including 5.72 g/t gold over 1 metre) - RC Note: True widths cannot be determined with the information available COMMENTARY Greg Isenor, President and CEO of Roscan Gold stated that “These drilling results clearly show a north and south strike extension of over 100 metres of the Mankouke gold zone outlined in AC Line 7. In addition, the mineralization outlined in Line 1 indicates a 300 metre strike length. The Kouroukaida workings (see photo), 500 metres to the south of Line 7 discovery, and the Diouraba workings (see photo), 2,000 metres to the north-east of Line 7 point to a potential 2,500 metre strike length of this mineralized zone. In addition to these workings, this entire strike length as well as other gold anomalies in the Siribaya Structure will be tested by drilling (see property map). The RC drill hole, RC 3, drilled to test for the down dip extension of the Line 7 mineralized zone, did not intersect gold mineralization; however, a zone of high sulfide (pyrite and arsenopyrite) occurs in this area and is interpreted to be the extension of the mineralized zone. Diamond drilling is planned for this area to get a better understanding of the depth extension of the mineralization. &n...
