These shears almost ubiquitously host gold mineralization within multiple highly foliated, altered and veined structures. Ngula 1 is a 600-metre long 120-200-metre broad zone hosting multiple east-west trending shear zones. This cross structure and its intersection with the main structures and other northwest trending cross structures is considered a key component of the geological control of wide and potentially high-grade mineralization at Ngula 1. These results are associated with robust geology comprising narrow to wide zones of strong shearing of the host rock, with associated alteration, quartz veining and sulphide mineralization. Significant strong sulphide mineralization encountered in this cross structure returned positive gold results that are expected to improve with depth. A set of drillholes targeted a known northeast trending structure that had never been drilled. The recent drilling at the target totaled 1,390 metres and 11 drillholes (excluding one abandoned drillhole).īest intersections returned in the recent drillholes include 5.22 g/t gold over 1.93 metres from 107.18 metres 4.14 g/t gold over 3.85 mietres from 118.49 metres, including 7.03 g/t gold over 2.08 metres 19.90 g/t gold over 0.57 metres from 35.24 metres and 1.68 g/t gold over 5.28 metres from 72.45 metres.Īll holes logged and sampled to date intersected multiple gold mineralization except for one drill hole. Highlights: A total of 3,586 metres of drilling has been completed at Ngula 1 in this phase of drilling, comprising a total of 23 drill holes. The company planned a 7,000-metre program of drilling of which 4,648m was completed before the drillers break commenced in December, drilling recently recommenced and is expected to be completed by the end of February.Īll drillholes intersected gold mineralization with one exception and a previously recognized, but undrilled cross structure, returned significant gold intersections associated with abundant sulphide, strong deformation and alteration. reported further encouraging Ngula 1 target results from the ongoing diamond drilling campaign on the company’s Tembo Project in Tanzania.
