The two drill holes intersected a wide zone of alteration similar to that which hosts the mineralization at Pokukrom, but disappointingly the assay results were weak. Refer to Figure 2.Īt Pokukrom East two holes, SPDD23-003 AND SPDD23-004, were drilled to evaluate a strong soil anomaly with coincident auger drill hole anomalism sitting on the northwestern flank of the Pokukrom East deposit between Pokukrom East and West. The oxide mineralization remains open to the south and auger drilling anomalism south of SPDD23-006 indicates additional shallow drilling further to the south is warranted. Drill hole SPDD23-006 tested for an extension to the high-grade oxide mineralization of Pokukrom West which was open-ended to the south intercepting 1.88 g/t Au over 13 meters, including 4.01 g/t Au over 4 meters, which could extend the resource model incrementally to the south. Future drilling will consider testing further down-plunge of DD21-002. The two holes did intersect alteration corresponding to the Pokukrom West zone, however gold assays were weak. "Īt Pokukrom West drill holes SPDD23-001 and SPDD23-002 tested for a northern extension of the Pokukrom West mineralization above hole DD21-002 which in 2021 successfully demonstrated a down-plunge continuation of Pokukrom West returning 3.19 g/t Au over 12 meters, including 6.85 g/t Au over 3 meters. In addition, a 6,750 meter exploration aircore drilling program is planned to assess a number of compelling targets along the 9 kilometers of favourable structure on the Manfo property for additional discoveries, including follow up at several prospects which have been lightly drill tested to date. While the recent program eliminated two targets from the list (a soil plus auger anomaly on the northwestern flank of Pokukrom East and the northerly extension of Pokukrom West at shallow levels), a number of targets remain untested at Pokukrom to be drilled in future programs. "The recently completed diamond drilling program at Manfo is part of a larger planned program of 3,700 meters of diamond drilling designed to test for extensions to the known mineralization at Pokukrom plus exploration targets in the vicinity. "The positive drilling results from the southern ends of both Pokukrom East and West has extended the mineralization incrementally in those areas warranting follow up drilling which could add to the resource," commented Ingrid Hibbard, President and CEO. Numerous potential resource extension and exploration targets remain untested around the known resources and along the nine kilometers of favourable structure at Manfo which will be addressed in future diamond drilling and exploration aircore drilling programs. SPDD23-007 returning 0.71 g/t Au over 20 meters including 1.32 g/t over 6 meters followed by a second zone of 1.66 g/t Au over 7 meters including 8.43 g/t Au over 1 meter extending mineralization down-dip at the shallow southern end of Pokukrom East. Seven diamond drill holes totaling 1,039.5 meters completed at the Pokukrom East and West deposits.Įxtends known mineralization at the southern end of the Pokukrom West deposit with SPDD23-006 intercepting 1.88 g/t Au over 13 meters, including 4.01 g/t Au over 4 meters in oxide. Highlights of Diamond Drilling at Pokukrom, Manfo Project (TSX-V:PX)(OTC PINK:PGXPF) ("Pelangio" or the "Company") completed a 1,039.5 diamond drill program at the Pokukrom East and West deposits on its Manfo Project located 15 kilometers south-southeast of Newmont's Ahafo Mine and 40 kilometers north of Asante Gold's Bibiani Mine.
