Core Insights - Omai Gold Mines Corp. announced significant assay results from deep drill hole 25ODD-122W, confirming the depth potential of the Wenot Gold Deposit, with multiple gold zones intersected at approximately 700m below the known deposit [1][2][5] - The results suggest a potential doubling of the overall size of the Wenot deposit, indicating a much longer mine life due to the discovery of gold zones extending at least 220m north to south [2][5][24] Summary by Sections Drill Results - The deep hole intersected multiple gold zones, including notable grades of 2.57 g/t Au over 8.6m, 5.12 g/t Au over 3.6m, and 2.19 g/t Au over 7.9m, with the latter including 3.61 g/t Au over 4.4m [4][8][11] - The hole reached a final depth of 2,014m, exceeding expectations, and confirmed the continuation of the Wenot Shear Corridor at significant depths [1][5][10] Geological Context - The Wenot Shear Corridor was first encountered around 1,740m downhole, with various mineralized zones identified within the sheared and altered mafic volcanics [7][10] - The best gold zones were found within the southern sedimentary sequence, extending from the central quartz-feldspar porphyry dike [8][9] Company Outlook - The current Mineral Resource Estimate for the Omai Gold Project, including both the Wenot and Gilt Creek deposits, totals 2,121,000 ounces of gold (Indicated) averaging 2.07 g/t Au [24] - The company plans to conduct further drilling to explore known gold occurrences and optimize the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) [24]
