Altus Strategies PLC (AIM:ALS, TSX-V:ALTS, OTCQX:ALTUF) announced further significant gold intersections from drilling at its Diba & Lakanfla project in western Mali.
Drilling results from the Lakanfla Central prospect include 0.90 grammes per tonne (g/t) gold over 66 metres (m) from a depth of 41m, 1.32 g/t gold over 26m, 2.21 g/t gold over 12m and 4.37 g/t gold over 6m.
"We are pleased to report on the further encouraging drilling intersections from the Diba & Lakanfla gold project,” said chief executive Steven Poulton.

“The latest results confirm the presence of a broad gold mineralised package at Lakanfla Central, from which we recently reported an intersection of 1.23 g/t Au [gold] over 127m.”
