Oriole Resources' chief executive, Tim Livesey, joined Chris Rhodes on Proactive to discuss the Bibemi gold project in Cameroon, where testing is underway with results due later this quarter.
Livesey describes a 'new frontier in gold exploration'.
"We continue to be impressed by the discoveries in the CLP. Significant gold-in-soil anomalies from the initial sampling grids indicate to us that this has the potential to become a new gold district in Africa," he told Proactive.
Awaiting assay results from the most recent Bibemi drilling, Oriole is looking to improve its understanding of the geological controls on mineralisation, hopefully leading to the delivery of an initial JORC exploration target later in the year.
He goes on to say: “Visual inspection of the core looks promising, especially in relation to the horizontal veining, which has the capacity to increase mineralised volumes significantly."
