Dual-listed Altus Strategies has started a 1 600 m diamond drilling (DD) programme at its Tabakorole gold project, in southern Mali.
The programme is focused on the 2.7-km-long FT Prospect and is being managed and financed by Glomin Services under the first phase of a joint venture between Glomin and Altus.
The programme is targeting high-grade trends from historic drilling, including 6.05 g/t gold over 18 m, 9.31 g/t gold over 16 m and 2.75 g/t gold over 66 m.
Altus notes that it has adopted robust health and safety procedures at the project in response to Covid-19.
