Core Insights - Stellar AfricaGold Inc. has reported significant assay results from its first drill hole at the Tichka Est Gold Project, indicating a promising gold system with confirmed mineralization at depth [1][10]. Drilling Results - The first drill hole TCK-001 intersected 13 meters of 6.12 g/t Au, including 2 meters of 22.28 g/t Au, and 16 meters of 1.98 g/t Au, including 1 meter of 11.55 g/t Au [3][4]. - A total of 492.8 meters of diamond core has been drilled across three holes in Zone B, with drilling progress averaging approximately 10.5 meters per day [3][11]. Geological Model - The mineralization is primarily hosted in sub-horizontal diorite sills, confirming the continuity of favorable lithology [3][9]. - Two well-defined mineralized zones were identified: Diorite 1 (16 m of 1.98 g/t Au) and Diorite 2 (13 m of 6.12 g/t Au) [9]. Operational Update - Drilling operations faced challenges such as fractured zones and weather-related impacts, but core recoveries exceeded 99% [12][16]. - The company plans to continue its 1,500-meter diamond drill program to test lateral continuity and down-dip extensions of the mineralized zones [17]. Future Plans - Management expressed confidence in the potential of the Tichka Est Gold Project and plans to expand the drilling program to explore additional targets [13]. - Surface reconnaissance exploration will continue across the 82 km² permit area, focusing on other areas of interest [13][14].
