Further Details
Following the announcement of initial results from its Anbat Project in Egypt (Stratex announcement dated 27th February 2017) Thani Stratex has reported results from four further diamond drill holes. Holes TDAND-003, -004 and -005 have confirmed the newly-interpreted geometry of a near-surface, flat-lying gold-mineralised zone to the east side of an identified mineralised intrusion, with visible gold observed in holes TDAND-004, 100 m to the west of TDAND-001, and TDAND-005, 50 m south of TDAND-001. The drilling has also identified additional deeper flat-lying zones of mineralisation. Best results include (using 0.1 g/t Au cut-off):
· 10.0 m @ 0.99 g/t Au from 117.5 m and 11.2 m @ 1.02 g/t Au from 144.0 m. (TDAND-03, drilled 100 m to the north-east of TDAND-001);
· 6 m @ 0.59 g/t Au from 75 m, 4.85 m @ 1.99 g/t Au from 99.15 m and 1.25 m @ 227 g/t Au (7.2oz/t) from 128 m (TDAND-04); and
· 32.35 m @ 1.48 g/t Au from 86.65 m incl. 18.2 m @ 2.25 g/t Au from 100.8 m, and 9.6 m @ 0.91 g/t Au from 184.4 m (TDAND-05).
TDAND-06, drilled 100 m due south of TDAND-05, returned 3 deeper zones of mineralisation:
· 8.15 m @ 0.74 g/t Au from 139.5 m;
· 10.9 m @ 1.04 g/t Au from 160.7 m; and
· 20.2 m @ 0.57 g/t Au from 201 m, incl 7.7 m @ 1.15 g/t Au from 213.5 m.
