Serengeti Resources Commences Follow-Up Drilling at Kwanika

Serengeti Resources has announced that a follow-up drilling has been commenced at Kwanika to analyze a variety of target areas found adjacent to the Central zone, containing gold and copper, and a high-priority geophysical target area situated 15 km towards south of the Kwanika property.

Additionally, the company released results of a geochemical survey program completed at the Valleau property, wherein the survey defined a 1600 m long, high-contrast soil anomaly containing copper and gold.

Recently, the company has commenced a 4 to 5 hole, 1,500 m drill program at Kwanika. Particular target areas comprise one drill hole that examines a strong induced polarization (IP) chargeability anomaly, discovered on two broadly isolated lines together with copper-gold soil anomalism situated 15 km towards the principal deposit’s southern part; two drill holes examining an interval, drilled towards the northern part of the Central zone where high-grade mineralization has been encountered in former holes; one to two drill holes examining a freshly re-analyzed IP geophysical anomaly, which expand up to 800 m towards north of the present resource region at the Central zone.

The company’s soil sampling program expanded a high-contrast copper and gold anomaly to up to 800 m in thickness and more than 1600 m in length at the Valleau property, which is situated 20 km towards east of Kwanika.

The strong portion of this high-contrast anomaly is located in an overburden enclosed region towards the eastern part of a partly defined open-ended IP anomaly, where up to 1.0 g/t gold over 10 m has been encountered in former trenches.
