Sanu Gold Announces Commencement of First-Ever Drill Program at its Diguifara Gold Permit

30.10.2024  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, October 30, 2024 - Sanu Gold Corp. (CSE: SANU) (OTCQB: SNGCF) (FSE: L73) ("Sanu Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the start of its phase 1 drilling plans for the Diguifara project in Guinea. The project is located only 20km from the Siguiri gold mine which is owned and operated by AngloGold Ashanti plc ("AngloGold Ashanti"). The drilling will be completed by Capital Limited which has extensive experience in drilling out large deposits in Guinea and whose investment arm (Capital DI) heavily participated in Sanu Gold's last financing

  • Drilling Commenced: First holes commenced on 28 October. A minimum of 2,000 m of air core and RC drilling in 19 holes is planned.
  • Undrilled High Potential Targets: The Diguifara permit features three undrilled, priority targets that cover a cumulative strike length of 3.2 km where auger-in-saprolite samples reach as high as 4.8 g/t Au.
  • Vectoring Towards Gold: The targets were selected based on their strong auger gold results from the weathered bedrock and continuity of geochemical and geophysical trends observed for between 0.6 to 2.5Km.
  • Proximity to a Large Gold Mine: The project is located only 20 km from the Siguiri Mine which produced 214,000 oz of gold in 20231 and is 85% owned by AngloGold Ashanti.

Martin Pawlitschek, President, and CEO of Sanu Gold commented: "We are excited to have started the inaugural drilling program over our Diguifara permit. Previous phases of work included extensive surface geochemistry, auger sampling of the weathered bedrock underneath the laterite overburden and ground geophysical surveys."

Program Update:

Drilling at Diguifara commenced at target Dig 1 on 28th of October. The program will include an initial phase of Air Core and RC drilling across three priority targets - Dig 1, Dig 2 and Dig 3 (Figure 1).

The rig mobilised by Capital is a large multipurpose rig which will complete a combination of Air Core and RC holes across the priority targets at Diguifara (Photo 1). Samples will be collected on site (Photo 2) and sent for gold analysis to MSAlabs in Bamako.

Dig 1

This target is defined by anomalous gold values from saprolite auger sampling. Peak values of up to 4.8 g/t Au have been obtained from the target. The gold trend parallels a feature visible in the chargeability and resistivity geophysics (Figure 2).

Recent ground truthing has also highlighted significant new artisanal mining in the weathered bedrock in the central parts of the anomaly (Photo 3). Material treated by the artisanal miners consists of weathered sediments with veinlets of dark grey to black quartz.

Nine holes for approximately 1000m are planned in phase 1 for the testing of this target.

Dig 2

This target is defined by anomalous gold values from saprolite auger sampling, outlining a consistent 1700m long trend up to 280m wide. The gold trend parallels feature visible in the chargeability and resistivity geophysics (Figure 2).

Ten holes for 1000m are planned for the testing of this target.

Dig 3

This gold trend defined in auger saprolite samples trends for 600m in a northwest direction (Figure 3). A total of five holes for 300-400m are planned for testing of this target.
