[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 29, 2022) - Sanu Gold Corporation (CSE: SANU) (\"Sanu\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report significantly elevated gold in rock chip samples of up to 12.5 g/t Au from bedrock mineralization recently exposed by artisanal miners at Daina. Highlights High grades of gold returned from 307 rock chip samples collected from bedrock exposed in artisanal workings at Daina 1, Daina 2 and Daina 6 targets. Rock chip samples containing more than 1 g/t Au include grades of 12,5g/t, 8,78g/t, 8,32g/t, 7,55g/t, 7,41g/t, 7,34g/t, 7,04g/t, 7,03g/t, 6,51g/t, 6,1g/t, 5,47g/t, and 5,35g/t Au. (Table 1) Workings and gold mineralization are located within extensive termite mound gold anomalies and coincident with a shear zone. Mineralization takes the form of intense quartz veinlet development, shearing, and disseminations in the rock between the veinlets. Geological and structural mapping indicated that the style of the gold mineralization is similar to that has been reported from the >5Moz Siguiri Gold Mine. Martin Pawlitschek, CEO of Sanu Gold commented: \"We are highly encouraged by the well-developed, wide zones of mineralization exposed by artisanal miners at Daina 1, Daina 2 and Daina 6 targets. The rock chip sampling and small-scale artisanal gold extraction activities clearly show that the kilometer scale gold geochemistry trends at Daina 1, Daina 2 and Daina 6 are formed over significant zones of bedrock mineralization. Given that the local mining activities open only a small fraction of the larger trends, we are confident that the auger drilling will define further zones of bedrock mineralization beneath the laterite cover.\" Details of the rock chips sampling Results and the geological and structural mapping Geological and structural mapping and rock chip sampling at Daina identified three bedrock gold mineralized zones associated with large termite mound anomalies at Daina 1, Daina 2 and Daina 6 targets (Figure 1). At Daina 1 (Figure 2), two samples from local working pits returned high gold values including 5,16g/t, and 1,1g/t. Pits are located within the 10km long termite mound gold anomaly and within a NNW-trending shear zone system that control the gold mineralization. Rocks that host the gold mineralization are similar to those from Daina 2 and 6 targets. Figure 1: Map ...
