Cora Gold Ltd has discovered more than “12km of pre-drilling gold structures” from exploration across its five permits in the Yanfolila project area, southern Mali.
TARGETS
The permits lie predominantly within 20km of Hummingbird Resources plc’s Yanfolila gold mine.
Cora’s discovered structures lie across the Farassaba III, Tékélédougou, Siékerolé, Tagan and Farani permits.
The company said that early stage exploration work would help create a pipeline of targets for future drilling to increase resources.
At Farassaba, Cora recorded values of up to 6g/t gold from grab samples from a programme along “newly identified high potential” gold bearing structures.
More than 9km of new gold structures were identified from three separate zones, which need to undergo follow-up work before a decision on reconnaissance drilling.
The company added it continued to evaluate and prepare future exploration programmes at Sanankoro and the wider exploration area.
