 Desoto Commences 10,000m Drilling at Timbakouna
Key Points
  • 485-hole power auger drilling program targeting historic intercepts
  • Focus on 800m soil anomaly and artisanal workings
  • Designed to test for bedrock-derived gold anomalism in saprolite
Full Summary

Desoto Resources is initiating a 485-hole, 10,000m power auger drilling program at the Timbakouna Gold Project in Guinea. The program targets 6km of artisanal workings and historic intercepts up to 18m @ 11.8g/t Au. Drilling will test priority targets including an 800m-long coherent soil anomaly and areas with historic high-grade drilling results. The program aims to define mineralised trends beneath weathered surface material, improving confidence in the scale and continuity of priority targets. The drilling will be integrated with airborne magnetic and radiometric survey data to refine targets for follow-up RC and diamond drilling.
