Ariana Resources plc, an AIM-listed mineral exploration and development company with gold interests in Africa and Europe, has provided an update on its ongoing exploration efforts at the 100%-owned Dokwe gold project in Zimbabwe. The focus is on areas where resources have not yet been defined, and several promising opportunities have been identified.
Key highlights:
- Soil sampling and pXRF analysis at Dokwe South have led to the discovery of a quartz vein breccia.
- A preliminary rock-chip sampling programme, consisting of 22 samples, returned seven samples with silver grades exceeding 10.0 g/t, with a peak of 35.2 g/t silver.
- A new regional pXRF soil sampling programme is currently underway, designed to cover the entire claims area.
- Regional exploration and resource infill drilling are in the final stages of planning, with all prospects located within 7 km of the planned Dokwe processing plant.
Dr. Kerim Sener, Managing Director, commented:
“Our recent exploration work across the Dokwe Project is yielding positive results, expanding the exploration potential of the area. The findings near Dokwe North and Central suggest significant upside, and the broader prospectivity of the project has increased. We look forward to providing further updates as we advance our work at Dokwe.”
