Goldrush Resources expands Ronguen North gold zone
Goldrush Resources (CVE:GOD) said Monday that drilling has expanded the footprint of the recent Ronguen North Zone gold discovery in Burkina Faso by 5.7 hectares.
The drill program consisted of 85 shallow, rotary air blast drill holes completed in February on the company's Kongoussi and Tikare permits, which host the 249,000 ounce Ronguen gold deposit. The drilling campaign was designed to test for extensions of the deposit and to find further targets.
Highlights of the results include 3.92 g/t gold over 10 metres, including 9.38 g/t gold over 4 metres in hole KRB11-0341; 2.86 g/t gold over 6 metres in hole KGRB11-0338; 0.62 g/t gold over 12 metres in hole KGRB11-0329; and 1.28 g/t gold over 4 metres in hole KGRB11-0331.
The company said the results extended the mineralization of the Ronguen deposit up to 180 metres north, with the new zone remaining open laterally and to depth.
Based on the encouraging results, additional reverse circulation drill hole locations have been planned on the new North Zone, with target depths of up to 80 metres to allow the mineralization to be easily included into an upgraded 2011 Ronguen resource estimate.
To date, Goldrush has drilled 3,900 metres of a planned 9,600 metre program on the Ronguen deposit and surrounding permits, which began in mid-March.
