Okapi Resources Ltd: Highly Prospective Gold Tenement Granted
![Okapi Resources Ltd: Highly Prospective Gold Tenement Granted](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
Based on a review of open file historical data Okapi applied for tenement E63/2039 to cover an interpreted structural target and coincident gold in soil anomaly. The tenement also contains the historical Maggie Hays Hill gold workings.
These workings comprise two lines of SE-trending historical gold pits and shafts, hosted in sheared amphibolites and minor felsic units. They are among the few historical gold workings in the belt and have therefore been a focus for the limited previous gold exploration programmes. The priority target zone sits adjacent to the historical workings but has not yet been adequately drill tested (Figure 2*).
Review of historical exploration in the area revealed a 10 km long zone of anomalous gold-insoil results with a peak value of 88 ppb Au. Nearby drilling intercepted a gold-bearing structure that returned gold values in several holes up to 2m @ 11.04 g/t Au (LJPC004, 26-28m). The tenor of gold mineralisation returned from the small historical programme is highly encouraging for Okapi's main structural target.
Okapi are planning for detailed geological mapping and an infill soil programme over the main target area to commence imminently. The upcoming fieldwork will be done with a view towards firming up drilling positions on the targets.
