Marvel Gold Limited announced the results of reconnaissance Auger and Aircore drilling and multi-element soil sampling at its Tabakorole Gold Project located in south-east Mali. The Project is held under two separate joint ventures, the Oklo JV (80% interest) and the Altus Strategies plc JV (currently 70%). Auger and Aircore reconnaissance drilling; Auger and Aircore drilling are rapid and cost-effective reconnaissance drilling techniques used to collect geochemical samples in areas where the soil geochemistry has been shown to be ineffective. In areas of residual soils or thin lateritic cover, Auger drilling is used to collect a geochemical sample at the soil-rock interface, which is most likely to give a clean geochemical response. In areas with thicker cover, Aircore drilling is used to get through the cover and collect a bedrock sample for geochemistry. Tabakorole trend - Target H and Lone Wolf; Target H is situated within the Tabakorole trend, which outlines the northern boundary of the regional structural corridor which is interpreted as a splay off the Bannifin Shear Zone. The million-ounce Tabakorole deposit2 is located at the north-eastern end of this trend. Soil sampling undertaken in 2021 identified three discrete zones of anomalous gold in soils along trend from the Tabakorole deposit. These zones (named Targets H, I and J) have been tested with Aircore drilling with the Target H results showing anomalous gold over 600m of strike with peak values of 0.55g/t Au and 0.58g/t Au. Target H remains open to the south-east while results from Targets I and J remain outstanding. Follow-up Aircore drilling is planned to test the full strike extent of Target H. Seven additional Aircore lines have been drilled along strike from Target H, at Targets I and J, the results of which are pending. Aircore drilling is currently under way at the Lone Wolf Target, located 2.7km south-
east of Tabakorole and within the same trend as Targets H, I and J. Previous drilling in 2021 returned 4m at 1.3g/t Au and 4m at 2.7g/t Au, ending in mineralisation (Aircore hole 21TBK00963). A solitary 2005 RC hole (05FLRC-97) into the Lone Wolf Target intersected 12m at 1.2g/t gold from surface4 and was never followed up. Four additional lines of Aircore drilling are planned, covering a strike length of 700m. Since the Aircore drilling campaign in 2021, artisanal miners have become active on this target lending further evidence to support mineralisation in this area.
