JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Gold developer West African Resources’ ongoing high-grade reverse circulation drilling at the M1 prospect, at its 100%-owned Tanlouka gold project, in Burkina Faso, has delivered good results.

The ASX-listed company noted on Tuesday that the drilling programme has intercepted 3 m at 16.5 g/t gold from 32 m; 23 m at 1.9 g/t gold from 8 m and 10 m at 2.5 g/t gold from 19 m.

MD Richard Hyde highlighted that the results put West Africa Resources on track to deliver the openpit feasibility study for Tanlouka in the first quarter of 2017.

“Resource estimation studies are currently in progress and will incorporate these new results,” he added.
