Orizon intersects 23.00 m of 2.84 g/t gold at P17S extension at Bombole gold mine, The Canadian Business Journal
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, September 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Orison Gold Corporation (TSX: ORE, OTCQX: ORZCF) (the “Company” or “Orazon”) is pleased to provide the final drilling results of the Phase III program from P17S-NE in line with the P17 mineralization trend at its Bombole gold mine in Burkina Faso.
The focus of Phase III drilling at P17S was to better define the continuity of repeated folded high-grade granodiorite mineralization.
Drill results continue to be very good, confirming the following:
- The downplunging continuity of the P17S mineralized zone was extended by more than 100 m further beyond the last set of drill results, with the system still open.
- Drilling continues to intercept significant new mineralization outside the current resource boundary.
- Mineralized zones remain open to strike surfaces and depths greater than 300 m.
P17S drilling highlights:
- 23.00 m of 2.84 g/t Au from 257.00 m, including 11.00 m of 5.26 g/t Au from 269.00 m of hole BBD1125
- 12.00 m of 2.13 g/t Au from 245.00 m, including 1.00 m of 19.37 g/t Au from 245.00 m of hole BBD1124
- 3.60 m of 5.58 g/t Au from 157.00 m of bore BBD1134
- 3.80 m of 4.55 g/t Au from 312.20 m of bore BBD1141
- 8.00 m of 3.40 g/t Au from 86.00 m, including 1.00 m of 17.99 g/t Au from 88.00 m of hole BBD1133
- 11.00 m of 1.78 g/t Au from 186.00 m, including 2.00 m of 7.54 g/t Au from 192.00 m of hole BBD1143
- 3.00 m of 4.15 g/t Au from 130.00 m, including 1.00 m of 10.13 g/t Au from 131.00 m of hole BBD1133
Dr. Pascal Marquis, Senior Vice President, Exploration, said: Significantly expanding known zones along both strike and downslope, the current resource he intersected with several new zones outside the pit shell. Based on the results of this program, he plans to return to drill on P17S in late 2022. Drilling is now well underway at the Siga deposit, followed by drilling to the north at the Maga deposit. Results from these programs are expected to be announced during the remainder of 2022. “

QA/QC
The mineralization interval is based on including a lower cut-off grade of 0.45 g/t, a minimum width of 1.5 m and a maximum dilution of 3.0 m. The true width of mineralization is approximately 90% of the drill length at P17S. Half-core drilled samples were cut by Orezone employees using a diamond saw. Samples were prepared at the Ouagadougou facility of SGS Burkina Faso sarl (“SGS”) and he was divided into 1 kg by Orezone using a rotary sample divider (“RSD”). At his BIGS Global Burkina sarl (“BIGS Global”) in Ouagadougou, 1 kg aliquots were analyzed for leachable gold by bottle roll cyanization using LeachWell.TMs catalyst. Leaching residues from all samples with a leaching grade of 0.4 g/t or higher were prepared by BIGS Global and then split into 50 g by Orezone using his RSD. A 50 g aliquot was analyzed by fire assay at BIGS Global.
Orezone employs a strict quality control program that includes a minimum of 10% standards, blanks and duplicates. Composite widths and grades include final leachable residue analysis results for most reported drill intercepts and are detailed in the tables posted on our website.
