Drilling Discovers Four New Gold Zones on Sega Project
[ initial part only ]
Results Include 13m grading 4.9 g/t and 19m grading 2.0 g/t in new Guibou Zone
Orezone Resources Inc. (OZN:TSX, AMEX) is pleased to announce the results from an ongoing 17,000m drilling program being carried out on the Company’s 100 per cent owned Sega Gold Project (Seguenega Permit) gold project in Burkina Faso, West Africa.
The 15,000m Reverse Circulation (RC) and 2000m Diamond Drill Core program, started in September 2005 and is focussed on extensions to the three known zones (RZ, Bakou and Gambo) as well as drilling a number of new proximal targets. The overall objective is to build enough resources that would support a mining operation. One RC rig and one core rig will continue to drill until late December.
Highlights of the New Zones include:
*
Guibou Zone, Hole GBC518 intersected 13m grading 4.9 g/t and hole GBC520 intersected 19m grading 2.0 g/t located 5km Northeast of the RZ/Bakou/Gambo complex. These two holes are 150m apart and further drilling along strike is underway. *
Tiba SE Zone, Hole TBC509 intersected 16m grading 2.3 g/t while hole TBC 512 intersected 9m grading 4.1 g/t located 4km East of Guibou. *
Mossi Zone, Hole GRC561 intersected 24m grading 1.5 g/t located 500m WSW of Gambo. *
RZ East Extension, Hole RZC540 intersected 13m grading 3.2 g/t and hole RZC536 intersected 34m grading 1.7 g/t 400m further East than previous results.
Ron Little , President of Orezone stated, “Many gold deposits in West Africa consist of a number lenses or zones that in aggregate, make an economic deposit and Sega is no exception to this model.” He added that “Until now our drilling has been focussed on a relatively small 2.5 km2 area around the RZ/Bakou/Gambo complex. We are very encouraged that we have now identified new zones with potentially economic widths and grades along a 14km deformation corridor which stretches from Guibou to Tiba.”
