Oriole’s partner starts infill sampling at Mbe

Posted on Author editorial Comment(1)

Oriole Resources plc reported the start of infill sampling at the early-stage 312km2 Mbe gold project on the Eastern Central Licence Package in Cameroon.

Focus: Mbe is one of five licences within the 2,266km2 Eastern CLP (Pixabay)

ANOMALISM

The company believes it has identified targets “indicative of a corridor of gold mineralisation” running across all five of its Eastern CLP licences. 

Earn-in partner BCM International Ltd completed its due diligence in January and is currently compiling results of completed structural mapping of the pits.

BCM’s infill sampling at the main 3-km long target of MB-01 will better “constrain the anomalism” before a planned trenching programme during Q2.

Infill soil sampling is also planned over the wider 12.5km-long zone of soil anomalism at Mbe, identified during the semi-regional programme, expected to begin later this quarter.

Mbe is one of five licences within the broader 2,266km2 Eastern CLP package of contiguous gold-focused licences.

Oriole chief executive Tim Livesey said that the remaining four, comprising Tenekou, Niambaram, Pokor and Ndom, remained under Oriole’s control and management.
