Algold Resources Ltd. announced assay results from a trenching and pitting program carried out in late fourth quarter 2017 at the high-grade Salma zone located at the Corporation's Tijirit project in Mauritania. The Salma Vein, discovered in mid-2017, is located only five kilometers northeast of the Eleonore zone. The Salma zone vein system has now been traced over a ten-kilometer-long mineralized gold structure situated at the prospective granite-greenstone contact zone. Highlights: 42.4 g/t Au over 0.65 meters true width from channel T17TRS09B, 6 meters below the surface in Salma north, situated 23 meters south-east of previously reported chip panel samples TMY139 (4.59 g/t Au) and 44 meters north of TMY134 (39.2 g/t Au); 30.6 g/t Au over 0.52 meters true width from channel T17TRS15A, 1.8 meters below the surface in the Salma north, situated 9 meters south of previously reported grab samples TGH013 (11.2 g/t Au); 4.71 g/t Au over 3.25 meters true width from channel T17TRS70, 2 meters below the surface, from the northern-most point of Salma sampled to date, 780 meters northeast of panel sample TMY126; 12.2 g/t Au over 2.76 meters true width in channel T17TRS32A, 3 meters below the surface from the southernmost end of the Salma zone and referred to as the Pressure Shadow area. A 100-meter-long structure has been defined with grab values between 3.8 g/t Au and 33 g/t Au; 5 g/t Au over 2.4 meters true width from channel T17TRS02A, 4 meters below the surface in the Pressure Shadow area, 197 meters south of historic RC drill hole 12TRC134, which returned 2.07 g/t Au over 4 meters at 41 meters down hole. Salma Vein System and Pressure Shadow Area Channel Sampling: Continuous channels were sampled, honouring geological contacts, using hammer and chisel with care taken to avoid sampling bias. Once collected, samples were dried, crushed and split with one kilogram pulverised and sent to SGS Ouagadougou for bottle roll analysis using LeachWELL assay tabs.
