Drilling Starts at Siribaya Gold Project, West
Mali
Drilling operations have begun
at the Siribaya Gold Project in West Mali. The first phase
of RC drilling is on the Diakha prospect on the southern extension
of the Fekola-Boto trend. The driller is Amco Drilling (UK)
Limited, a leading provider of drilling services across West
Africa.
About the 2014 Exploration Program
The 2014 exploration plan
includes 30,250 metres of drilling budgeted at US$1.75 million and
is designed to test priority targets identified by geochemical
termite sampling. Greater emphasis will be placed on targets
occurring within the western permits (Kambaya and Siribaya West),
while those located further east will be further refined and
prioritized (Kofia to Diarindi).
Summary details of the 2014
exploration plan are as follows.
-
- Termite mound infill
sampling to 100m x 100m centres over the Diakha prospect and over a
possible northeast striking mineralized structure on the Kambaya
permit.
- 7,750 metres of RC drilling
over the Diakha and Kono prospects.
- 10,000 metres of AC drilling
initially at Kono with additional AC drilling to test the Hafia,
Liberta and Guia geochemical anomalies.
- 12,500 metres of shallow
auger drilling over gold geochemical anomalies and trends located
in the eastern half of the project area.
- Complete geological mapping
over Diakha and Kono.
The
Siribaya camp is open with crews currently engaged in geological
mapping and geochemical sampling. IAMGOLD is funding the US$1.75
million 2014 program and has agreed to extend the payment deadline
for all joint venture exploration contributions to December 31,
2014 providing Merrex with additional time to finance.
