Handeni Gold Inc. provided an update on the exploration activities on its 800 km2 Handeni property in the United Republic of Tanzania. The company's focus is currently on upgrading its identified targets on the four prospecting licenses (each a 'PL') areas to drill target status. To this effect primary focus is currently on the 200km2 covered by PL6743 even though exploration is continuing on the company's other PLs. A total of 5050 soil samples (including blanks and standards) from targets in PL6743 are currently being analysed by XRF (hand-held X-Ray fluorescence) and prepared for submission to assay laboratories. The results of the soil sampling program on Target 5 received to date are highly encouraging, with gold in soil values of up to 200 ppb encountered. Au (gold) assay results received for 2331 samples. The geochemical target coincides with a magnetic and electro-magnetic geophysical anomaly on surface over an area of approximately 1.8 km (N-S) by 900 m (E-W). The anomalous gold zone apparently dips East to Southeast as part of a large fold structure. High Au values coincide with topographic highs. The evaluation of this target will be continued by pitting, trenching and ground IP (Induced Polarization).
