Predictive Discovery (PDI) has returned high impact air-core drill results near its NE Bankan Deposit in Guinea.
Predictive’s extensive AC drilling program kicked off with 16 holes totalling 660 metres. The program returned a series of gold auger anomalies in the south and west of NE Bankan, with best results including 28 metres at 12.1 grams per tonne (g/t) gold from 22 metres.
The company said it plans to systematically test multiple promising targets identified previously by regional auger drilling.
Managing Director, Paul Roberts, said the results are a great start to its regional AC program, confirming the potential for discovering new zones of gold mineralisation.
“Importantly, some of the new AC drill results also suggest that transported material may have been too deep in places for the auger to drill through it, opening up the possibility that some of the new mineralised zones reported here may extend significantly along strike in follow-up AC drilling,” said Paul Roberts.
“Our approach to exploration on the Bankan Project has been methodical, starting with power auger grid drilling and/or surface geochemical sampling and following up plus 0.25g/t gold anomalies with AC drilling.”
“With both deposits now the focus of resource studies and systematic extensional drilling, we have returned to AC scout drilling across the permit area with immediate success,” said the Managing Director.
Predictive Discovery said its maiden resource estimate is on-track for completion in the next week.
The company last traded at 14.5 cents on September 22.
