"We are extremely pleased to have attracted the attention of Sprott," said Mark Campbell, CEO of Aton. "Sprott Private Wealth LP, and one of its affiliates, are some of world's preeminent resource-focused firms and I believe that their involvement in this offering speaks to the quality of our team and the Abu Marawat concession. The funds raised by this offering will enable us to advance and unlock the potential of the Abu Marawat concession. Right now, we are planning a ground magnetic, ground EM (electromagnetic) and downhole EM geophysical surveys to identify massive sulphide targets at the Hamama project, which will be the focus of the next drilling campaign."

Activity update:

  • Aton expects to announce assay results for the remaining holes of the 38-diamond drill hole program, totaling 3,428.20 metres, at Hamama West, one of three zones that comprise Hamama, within the next several weeks.
  • The Corporation is planning a ground EM (electromagnetic) and downhole EM geophysical surveys to identify massive sulphide targets at the Hamama project.
  • Aton is working with Cube Consulting and expects to announce a NI 43-101 compliant initial resource at Hamama West by year end.

About the Hamama project

The Hamama project ("Hamama") is located at the western end of the 40km long gold trend at the Abu Marawat concession and is comprised of three zones, Hamama West, Hamama Central and Hamama East. The mineralized horizon at Hamama has a strike length of approximately 3km and remains open to the west and the east. Mapping indicates that the horizon may extend another 3.2kms to the east, which would more than double Hamama's current strike length. Further exploration work will be conducted to confirm this. Aton's most recent exploration activities have been focused at Hamama West, where it recently completed 38 diamond drill holes in 3,428 metres. Hamama West has been deeply weathered into a soft, friable oxidized gossan blanket, referred to as a gold-oxide cap, which is over 900 metres long, up to 110 metres wide and has an average vertical depth of 35 metres. Importantly, sulphide mineralization has been traced up to 180 metres in depth at Hamama West and remains open. Aton plans to announce a NI 43-101 compliant resource for Hamama West by year end.
