The jointly-approved 6,500m drill program is designed to follow-up on four of the six zones that contain mineral resources and to test new targets with the aim of expanding the current mineral resource and discovering new zones. Savary management noted that initial core drilling will test both existing and new gold-mineralized systems which in their view demonstrate the best potential for both size and grade. Approximately 25% of the program will be core holes with the remainder being reverse circulation. It is expected that the drill program will take approximately six weeks to complete. Sarama's President and CEO, Andrew Dinning commented:"Sarama's interests in the 0.7Moz 3,4 Karankasso Project and the adjacent 2.1Moz 1,2 South Houndé Project, places the Company in an enviable position to participate in the next stage of development in the prolific Houndé Belt where Roxgold and Endeavour are currently constructing new mines."
