[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 13, 2024) - Sanu Gold Corporation (CSE: SANU) (OTCQB: SNGCF) (\"Sanu Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the results of a recently completed infill termite mound and soil sampling program on the Company's Bantabaye gold exploration permit (\"Bantabaye\" or the \"Permit\") in Guinea, West Africa. The Permit which lies on the western margin of Guinea's prolific Siguiri Basin, is located approximately 50 kilometres (\"km\") south of the multi-million-ounce Lefa Gold Mine and 80 km north of the multi-million ounce Bankan Gold Project.1 Highlights: Footprint of key target areas expanded: New results have been integrated into the project database to assist in delineating drill targets. Prominent gold anomalies between the Bantabaye Thrust Fault and the Tinkisso Fault: There is a 4.5 km overall trend coincident with the main structural corridor. Strong gold signature: Consistent anomalies delineated at >0.1 g/t Au in surface geochemistry with one termite mound sample returning a maximum of 1.94 g/t Au2 Martin Pawlitschek, President and CEO commented: \"The infill termite mound and soil sampling has been highly effective in increasing the resolution of the east-west oriented surface gold anomalies at Bantabaye. The results from this work show coherent and expanded gold anomalies that parallel the main interpreted structural zones over key target areas, where initial drilling in 2023 returned 11.4 g/t Au over 15 m3, including 41.2 g/t Au over 4 m.\" \"This new data will form an integral part of the overall project database, which includes very promising preliminary results from our ongoing ground geophysics program, with the overall objective of defining our next round of drill targets. The work program continues, with drilling planned to commence before quarter-end,\" continued Mr. Pawlitschek. Program Summary A total of 934 termite mound and soil samples were collected on a 50 by 100 m grid covering a 5 km2 area with north-south trending lines in Bantabaye North. The samples were analyzed for their gold content, with 44 of 934 samples returning values over 0.2 g/t Au (Table 1). The results of this work better define the high-priority target areas previously outlined by surface sampling, auger, and reverse circulation (\"RC\") drilling (Figure 1). Results highligh...
