Azumah Resources Limited advised that three widely-spaced exploratory drill holes at the Company's Wa Gold Project Kunche deposit have all intersected mineralisation down to at least 500m below surface and returned some exceptionally high grade intercepts. Notable intercepts from this first concerted phase of deep drilling at Kunche included 0.5m at 168.3g/t Au (over 5oz gold per tonne) from 650.5m (KRCD855) and 0.5m at 89.39g/t Au (nearly 3oz gold per tonne) from 613.5m (KRCD853) with visible gold observed at 650.5m and 613.5m respectively. These results raise expectations that infill drilling could identify multiple, mineralised ore shoots associated with feeder zones extending below the planned Kunche open pit mine. The holes, drilled 540m apart for a total of 2,120m, were specifically designed to test for repetitions and vertical extensions of the `main' central mineralised `fluid conduit' discovered at Kunche a year ago where hole KRC831 returned an intercept of 44m at 5.37g/t Au from 99m, including 27m at 7.86g/t Au from 116m, 20m at 10.27g/t Au from 120m and 1m at 144g/t Au from 137m. Whilst generally narrow intercepts were returned in this latest round of drilling, the discovery of gold at these depths marks a step-change in depth expectations for the Kunche deposit and provides considerable geological information to guide the next phase of drilling. The next phase of drilling will infill back up towards the surface as well as probe for mineralisation to even greater depths as other examples of orogenic, structurally controlled ore deposits are known to extend to over two kilometres in depth in West Africa, Canada, Western Australia and elsewhere in the world. The confirmation of deep mineralisation at Kunche follows the recent discovery of substantial, high-grade mineralisation at the nearby Bepkong East Lode deposit. This has a drill defined strike of over 300m and has been confirmed to extend to at least 580m below surface.
