Avanti Gold Corp. is a Canadian-based gold exploration company with a robust portfolio of projects in Africa. The Company's flagship asset, the Misisi Project in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), is home to the Akyanga gold deposit. Akyanga is a 43-101 compliant, Inferred Mineral Resource of 44.3 million tonnes at an average gold grade of 2.37 grams per tonne, containing 3.1 million ounces of gold. The Misisi Project spans three contiguous 30-year mining leases covering 133 square kilometers along the 55-kilometer-long Kibara Gold Bel

To date, over $30 million has been invested in exploration at the Misisi Project, including 20,000 meters of diamond drilling and 500 kilometers of trenching. Extensive geochemical and geophysical work has been conducted over the entire 55 km belt, generating several drill-ready exploration targets. The initial drill program will focus on the southern extension of the main Akyanga Inferred Resource, a parallel structure (Akyanga East) 500 meters east of Akyanga, and three well-defined targets ranging from 5 km to 20 km south of the main ore body. The priority will be to process 2,100 metres of diamond drilling (completed by the previous owner) from Akyanga that has not been assayed and is not included in the existing Inferred Mineral Resource calculation.
