Algold Provides an Update on Mauritania Exploration

25.11.2015  |  The Newswire

Highlights

  • -Identification of copper-gold mineralisation on the newly uncovered LC Prospect on Legouessi

    -Carried out a 72 line km IP geophysical survey over parts of Legouessi and Kneivissat

    -Identified two major IP chargeability anomalies on the LC Prospect, Legouessi property

    -Sent 50 samples for analysis as part of a rock-chip sampling program on the LC Prospect

Montreal, Canada / TheNewswire / November 25, 2015 - Algold Resources Ltd. (ALG: TSXV - the "Corporation") provides an update on its Q3-Q4 2015 exploration program currently underway on both the Kneivissat and Legouessi properties in Mauritania.

Algold has just completed its 72 line kilometer IP geophysical survey as well as a 75 line kilometer ground magnetic survey over parts of its Legouessi and Kneivissat properties. Concurrently with the geophysical survey, a geological mapping and rock chip sampling program was undertaken with a total of 50 samples collected and sent for analysis at ALS Laboratories (assays pending). A full report from Algold's geophysical consultant is expected prior to year-end.

The recent mag survey covered part of the LC Prospect, a newly identified mineralised area situated to the northeast of the SL prospect on the Legouessi Property. This area was not included in the course of previous geophysical surveys carried out by Caracal between 2007 and 2011. In addition, this latest IP survey covered both Legouessi LC and SL prospects as well as the KC-LSO prospect.

The LC Prospect extrapolation map of the 150-meter vertical depth contour (Figure 1) shows two major IP chargeability anomalies.

The most important anomaly is situated in the northeast sector of the area surveyed, indicating a chargeable unit that is parallel to the main east-west lithotectonic orientation. A number of rock outcrops were mapped in the same area displaying copper sulphide mineralisation (reference: Photo 1 on the Corporate website). On one of the rock outcrops, the presence of copper, gold and silver mineralisation was noted.

The second anomaly trending NW-SE is situated in the north-western portion of the surveyed land. This chargeability anomaly is parallel to the main lithotectonic orientation and is coincident to high resistivity. This same area yielded a number of gold-bearing rock samples during Algold's previous mapping program (reference: Algold's press release dated March 3, 2015).

"The presence of lapillis tuffs with copper-gold bearing mineralization associated with a large chargeable unit is an indicator of the potentiality of a gold-rich VMS type structure in the LC Prospect area," said Francois Auclair, Chief Executive Officer, Algold. "Owing to consistent positive information and results from exploration, we remain very optimistic about the future potential of our permitted properties in Mauritania."

Algold anticipates the commencement of an RC-drilling program on the very promising KC-LSO, LC and SL Prospects immediately following reception of both the geophysical report and assays results in early Q1 2016.

Adjustment to Algold's Participation in Legouessi Exploration Licence Joint Venture Company

In accordance with an earn-in-agreement entered into on October 20, 2015, the Corporation acquired a 51% interest in Norex, a newly incorporated joint venture company, 49% owned by Caracal, to own, explore, develop and operate the Legouessi exploration licence. Subsequent to the incorporation of Norex, the Corporation entered into an agreement whereby Wafa waived the US$200,000 payment required in accordance with the January 2013 agreement in exchange for a fixed 5.1% participation in Norex, thus bringing Algold's participation to 45.9%.

Shares Issued for Settlement of Debt

Algold also announces that it has completed a transaction under which $15,000 in debt owed by Algold to an arm's length third party in connection with professional services rendered to the Corporation has been converted into a total of 100,000 common shares at a price of $0.15 each.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)

Analytical work for soil geochemical samples and rock chip samples is carried out at the independent ALS "Abilab" Laboratories Ltd. in Bamako, Mali. Samples are stored at Algold's field camp and put into sealed bags until delivered by a geologist to the ALS preparation laboratory in Nouakchott, Mauritania. RC samples were combined to create two-meter composite samples. QA/QC procedures are followed and 2% gold standard, 2% blank, and 2% duplicates are added to the samples batch. Soil samples are sieved and prepared for shipping to Bamako. In Bamako, samples are crushed and pulverised to 200 mesh (80 micron) and a 30 gram split is analyzed by fire assay with an AA finish. ICP analysis are conducted at the ALS Chemex Vancouver laboratory.

Blanks and duplicates are used to monitor laboratory performance during the analysis. Analytical work for the drilling program conducted by Caracal was carried out at the ALS Irish laboratory under the supervision of a senior geologist.
