Teranga Gold Reports Additional Golden Hill Drill Results, Including 12.28 g/t Gold Over 12 m and 11.29 g/t Gold Over 8 m at The Ma Prospect
Ma Prospect is Developing into a Mineralised System That is More Than Two Kilometres in Length
TORONTO, Sept. 13, 2017 - Teranga Gold Corp. ("Teranga" or the "Company") (TSX:TGZ) (ASX:TGZ) is pleased to announce that early-stage drilling continues to yield high-grade, near-surface and deeper gold mineralization at its Golden Hill property in Burkina Faso, West Africa. Teranga, through its acquisition of Gryphon Minerals Ltd., has an earn-in agreement on the Golden Hill property with Boss Resources Limited (ASX:BOE) pursuant to which Teranga, as the operator, can earn an 80% interest in the joint venture upon delivery of a feasibility study and the payment of AUD2.5 million.
These most recent diamond drill results comprise the remaining phase two and initial phase three drill results at the Ma prospect, one of two new discoveries reported by Teranga in April. All of the Golden Hill prospects drilled by the Company to-date are located approximately 5 kilometres from a central point (see Figure 1 in Appendix 1).
The phase two and initial phase three drill programs continue to return excellent near-surface grades and widths at the Ma prospect, including:
- 12 m @ 12.28 g/t Au including 4 m @ 34.04 g/t Au (GHDD-063)
- 8 m @ 11.29 g/t Au including 3 m @ 29.09 g/t Au (GHDD-051)
- 13 m @ 5.84 g/t Au including 3 m @ 18.82 g/t Au (GHDD-046)
- 7 m @ 7.38 g/t Au including 1m @ 46.60 g/t Au (GHDD-055)
- 17 m @ 2.52 g/t Au including 4 m @ 6.34 g/t Au (GHDD-059)
- 9 m @ 4.81 g/t Au including 4 m @ 8.51 g/t Au (GHDD-061)
“These most recent results from Ma have provided some of the widest and highest grade intervals from our drilling campaigns to-date and added further on-strike extension to the west of previous drilling,” said David Mallo, Teranga’s Vice President, Exploration. “The positive drill results at Ma serve to confirm the along trend and initial down-dip continuity of grade and width from surface exposure to depths now approaching 60 to 70 metres at this quickly advancing prospect. Recent step-out drilling results located to the west of our previous drill success demonstrate a general strengthening of the mineralisation which remains open and will be followed-up further west and to depth in the near term.”
Continued Mr. Mallo, “In addition, our reverse circulation drilling program from the eastern part of our Ma prospect to the Ma East prospect, a distance of over 900 metres, is providing favorable results and adding substantially to our geological understanding of this sparsely explored area. We are still at an early stage of exploration and with these results recognize considerable upside for continued exploration success both along trend and to depth where the mineralized structures remain open to further expansion. We will continue to test the Ma structure along what is developing into a more than 2 kilometre long mineralised system.”
The Golden Hill property is comprised of three adjacent exploration permits covering 468 km2 located in southwest Burkina Faso in the central part of the Houndé Greenstone Belt. This belt hosts a number of high-grade gold discoveries, including the Siou, Yaramoko and Houndé deposits, the latter property being contiguous with Golden Hill. To the south of Golden Hill is another large land position where active exploration programs are well underway.
Ma Prospect: Phase Two and Three Diamond Drilling
At the Ma prospect, 30 diamond drill holes, GHDD-28 to 58, were completed during the phase one and two drill evaluations, testing the primary northwest trending Ma structure, a secondary parallel, northwest trending structure and north-south trending cross-structures. Gold mineralization at the Ma prospect is hosted in an extensive, favourably altered, pyritic, silicified and brecciated shear system within a sequence of mafic volcanics intruded by at least two distinct phases of granitic intrusive bodies.
The phase three drill program began at the Ma prospect in early August and is ongoing. This drill program is a continuation of the previous drill phases, and is designed to further evaluate the currently outlined strike extent on regularly spaced sections, extend drilling further along trend and continue testing down dip depth extensions below the favourable gold mineralised intervals previously announced from drill phases one and two. The area of recent drilling focus, the westernmost portion of the Ma prospect, suggests that mineralization is strengthening here, having returned some of our strongest grade-width intersections to-date, and remains open to further expansion. To date, a minimum 1,420-metre extent along strike of the primary Ma structure has been intersected successfully by diamond drilling within the overall + 2,000-metre drilled extent that includes both our diamond and reverse circulation drilling (Figure 2 in Appendix 1).
Representative sections from the Ma prospect are included (see Figures 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 in Appendix 1). These representative sections demonstrate the correlation and continuity observed for the mineralized structural zones from surface to drilled depths approaching 60-70 metres, and remains open. A complete listing of the drilling results reported in this news release, from the 11 holes comprising the last portion of the phase two drill results and initial 7 holes of the phase three drill program, is included in Table 1.
A complete listing of assays from all Ma prospect diamond drill holes completed to date are shown in an all-prospect combined results Table 3 in Appendix 1.
Ma / Ma East Prospects: RC Drilling
Immediately to the east of the Ma phase one, two and three diamond drill program, recent drill testing by a series of reverse circulation profiles and scout reverse circulation drill holes at the Ma East prospect, as well as between the Ma and Ma East prospects was undertaken (Figure 2 in Appendix 1). This drilling is designed to fill in a gap between our easternmost Ma prospect diamond drill program and the Ma East prospect. As well, it is used to evaluate the prospective surface results of the Ma East prospect, including re-orientation of drilling direction to fully assess all structural zones (Figure 8 in Appendix 1). Results from this evaluation program will assist in follow-up diamond drilling throughout the eastern portion of the Ma prospect.
Results for this reverse circulation scout-drill program, designed to evaluate the potential linking of the Ma and Ma East prospects, are outlined in Table 2, including the following highlight results:
- 20 m @ 2.50 g/t Au including 8 m @ 4.65 g/t Au (GHRC-057)
- 7 m @ 2.53 g/t Au including 2 m @ 4.29 g/t Au (GHRC-055)
- 4 m @ 2.35 g/t Au (GHRC-054)
Other Activities & Next Steps
Diamond drilling (minimum 1,500 metres) is also underway at the Jackhammer Hill prospect. Prior to this current drilling, the Company has drilled only two scout holes here which included a previously reported diamond drill interval of 1.26 g/t Au over 5.2 metres in GHDD-001 (Table 4 in Appendix 1). The current drilling program is outlined on the Jackhammer Hill drill plan, Figure 9 in Appendix 1.
In addition to the ongoing drilling at Ma and Jackhammer Hill, drilling is also planned for both the Nihiri and Peksou prospects in the fourth quarter, following-up on favourable results from drilling evaluation programs earlier in the year. Geologic modeling and initial resource estimation for the most advanced prospects is also being planned for mid-year 2018.<

* Intervals calculated with a 0.4 g/t Au cut-off and 2 metres maximum internal dilution. Sampling used lithologic contacts for the initial drill program, standard metre-metre sampling will be utilized in future. True widths are unknown. UTM's are WGS84-30N | ||||||||||
** Interval includes 2 metres of no recovery (34.5-36.5) where hole intersected an artisanal opening | ||||||||||
*** During the drilling of the mineralized interval of 4 to 38 metres in drill hole GHDD-026, there were four metre-by-metre samples for which no recovery was reported: (11-12 m, 12-13m, 15-16 m and 19-20m). As such, both the 34-metre and 14-metre intervals reported in the above Table include these four metres without sample material available for analysis. Each of these individual samples have been given a nil value in the reported interval calculations. | ||||||||||
**** Drill hole GHDD-004 was designed as a test of the continuity of mineralization identified by historic RC drilling and to provide a continuous drill hole through the primary mineralization hosting Granitic Intrusive and across the contact with the Mafic Volcanics. As demonstrated in Figure 9, drill hole GHDD-004 was drilled in large part down the trend of mineralization and is an exaggerated width. However, this hole has in part, confirmed the continuity of grade down trend, extended the known depth of gold mineralization considerably deeper than previous historic drilling and has greatly improved the confidence in the geologic model of Peksou which will guide future drilling. | ||||||||||
NSR means no significant results. |
