Oklo Resources Limited reported highly encouraging assays results from first pass, shallow aircore (AC) drilling at its 100%-owned Kandiole Project in west Mali, Africa. HIGHLIGHTS: Potential new gold discovery at the previously undrilled Kandiole Project, located ~20km southwest of the Seko Mineral Resource, within Oklo Dandoko Project. First pass AC drilling encountered an extensive zone of near surface gold mineralisation in three 200m-spaced drill traverses. Significant results for follow-up include: 3m at 4.81g/t gold 6m at 1.38g/t gold; 3m at 4.24g/t gold 3m at 1.81g/t gold; 3m at 3.92g/t gold 12m at 0.45g/t gold 6m at 1.29g/t gold. Mineralisation is coincident with a previously defined 1,000m long by 150m wide auger gold anomaly. Follow-up infill auger drilling underway to assist defining the extent of this new target. The Company reported highly encouraging results from first pass, shallow AC drilling at its 100%-owned Kandiole Project, located 20km southwest of the recently reported Seko Mineral Resource within Oklo Dandoko Project. Since the announcement of the initial Mineral Resource estimate in late March 2021, the Company has embarked on an aggressive resource growth initiative. The current program comprised 14,000m of drilling at the Dandoko Project, targeting Mineral Resource extensions along strike and at depth of Seko and a number of geochemical and induced polarization geophysical targets (IP) along the 15km Dandoko gold corridor. A further 8,500m of AC drilling was allocated to first pass testing of geochemical and conceptual targets within the Company's 100%-owned Sari and Kandiole Projects, located in close proximity to Dandoko. Highly encouraging assay results from first pass drilling at the Sari Project were announced which included 24m at 1.97g/t gold from 12m downhole. The assay results reported in this announcement are from first pass AC drilling at the Kandiole Project. REGIONAL DRILLING RESULTS: Six 200m-spaced AC traverses (66 holes for a total of 4,467 metres) were recently completed in the northeast of the Kandiole Project. The first pass shallow AC holes were designed to test the KN1 gold in auger geochemical anomaly, one of 4 auger targets previously delineated by Oklo. KN1 corresponds to an interpreted northeast-trending structural corridor extending from the regionally significant Senegal Mali Shear Zone into the Company's flagship Dandoko Project. The drilling successfully encountered multiple gold intersections within an extensive zone. Best intersections included: 3m at 4.81g/t gold 6m at 1.38g/t gold, 3m at 4.24g/t gold 3m at 1.81 g/t gold, 3m at 3.92g/t gold 12m at 0.45g/t gold 6m at 1.29g/t gold. Importantly, this zone mineralisation forms part of a much larger auger geochemical anomaly (KN1) that extends over 2.4km. Similar untested targets are located to the immediate west, including KN2-4, with infill auger geochemistry programs underway.
