[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 1, 2022) - Sanu Gold Corporation (CSE: SANU) (OTCQB: SNGCF) (\"Sanu Gold\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the results of a recently completed initial auger drilling and artisanal pit sampling program (the \"Program\") on the Bantabaye Gold Exploration Permit (\"Bantabaye\", or the \"Permit\"), located 50 kilometres (\"km\") south of the multi-million ounce Lefa Gold Mine in Guinea, West Africa. The Program outlined a total of 9 km of gold in bedrock anomalies and returned high-grade gold in pit samples of up to 18.3 grams of gold per tonne (\"g/t Au\"). Highlights Broad zones of gold in bedrock anomalies extending over a cumulative 9 km strike length on the Permit have been defined by auger drilling in 6 target areas; these anomalies correlate with previously defined termite mound gold anomalies and artisanal workings, High gold grades of up to 18.3 g/t Au were returned from bedrock samples collected from artisanal workings in 2 target areas, and The 10 target areas defined on the Permit form a series of sub-parallel gold bearing lineaments that are coincident with interpreted local structures. Martin Pawlitschek, CEO of Sanu Gold commented: \"We are very pleased with the results of our first pass auger drilling and bedrock sampling of artisanal workings at Bantabaye. The results from this program outline a total of nine kilometres of gold in bedrock anomalies coincident with artisanal workings and previously-defined termite mound gold anomalies and will be used to delineate targets for our initial reverse circulation drill program, which we anticipate starting early in the new year.\" Program Overview The Program included 11,756 meters (\"m\") drilled in 658 auger holes over Targets 5 to 10, as well as the collection of bedrock samples from pits in artisanal workings at Targets 2 and 7. Initial Auger Drilling (Targets 5 to 10) Auger drilling targeted previously defined high priority gold in termite mound anomalies (see Sanu news release dated September 1, 2022). The objective of this work was to outline shallow bedrock geochemical anomalies, which will be used to delineate initial Reverse Circulation (\"RC\") drill targets. A fast and cost-effective tool, the power auger allows systematic sampling of saprolite (weathered bedrock) below a 1 to 15 m thick cover ...
