Aurum Resources reports high-grade gold hits in Côte d’Ivoire

Aurum Resources has reported significant high-grade gold intercepts at its Boundiali gold project in Côte d’Ivoire. The results stem from 22 diamond drill holes at the BST1 deposit, which currently holds a 340,000-ounce resource.

Notable findings include a shallow intercept of 5.63 metres grading 31.79 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, featuring a 2.63-metre section at 67.6 g/t gold. Other high-grade results include a 3.07-metre hit at 17.2 g/t gold and a 0.5-metre section at 104.13 g/t gold.

The drilling campaign is part of a larger 100,000-metre program intended to expand the existing resource and increase confidence levels prior to a definitive feasibility study. Managing director Dr Caigen Wang stated that the results reinforce the project's growth in scale and confidence.
