Auszug aus der Veröffentlichung der letzten Bohrresultate - selbstredend wieder excellent - vor der überarbeiteten Resourcenschätzung und der PEA mit West Wenot als Starter Pit:
December 5, 2023, Toronto, Ontario — Omai Gold Mines Corp. (TSXV: OMG) (OTC:OMGGF) (“Omai” or the “Company”) announces completion of its 2023 Omai drill program, having released a series of strong drilling results from the Wenot gold deposit and extension, located on the Omai property in Guyana. These results will contribute to an updated Mineral Resource Estimate that is currently underway.
As part of the recently completed diamond drilling program, two additional holes were completed on nearby SP and BBH exploration targets, following-up on results from trenching, drilling and modelling of these areas since 2021. One hole, drilled down plunge on the SP high-grade target, intersected two intervals of significant gold mineralization with the true width of the zone or zones yet to be determined. Highlights from this hole 23ODD-069 include: •§7.69 g/t Au over 9.5m •§3.42 g/t Au over 15.0m P&E Consulting Ltd. has been engaged as the independent qualified person (“QP”) to prepare an updated Mineral Resource Estimate which is expected at year end or early in the new year. Work towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) is expected to proceed immediately thereafter, with supporting studies already underway.
Elaine Ellingham, President & CEO, commented: “This completes the results from the 2023 diamond drill program and we are pleased that it achieved its objectives:
Drilling in the West Wenot “starter pit” area successfully expanded the known zones of gold mineralization in all directions and is expected to have a positive impact on the updated Mineral Resource Estimate. All West Wenot holes intersected multiple gold zones with very favourable widths and grades for open pit mining, including 4.07 g/t over 31.1m (23ODD-063), 2.26 g/t Au over 70.0m (23ODD-071), 4.54 g/t Au over 27.5m (23ODD-065) and 5.89 g/t Au over 12.0m (23ODD-067). This area, lying west of the past-producing pit, extends along a strike of at least 600m and is a likely area for early mining.
Another objective for 2023 was to investigate the depth potential of Wenot. Hole 23ODD-064, in the mid-pit area, intersected 5.18 g/t Au over 20.2m, including 12.7 g/t Au over 7.9m at a vertical depth of approximately 435m. Previously, the deepest gold intersections in central Wenot were 4.77 g/t Au over 22.0m (21ODD-001) and 6.92 g/t Au over 19.0m (21ODD-013). These are significant as they indicate potential for later underground mining of higher grade zones from the bottom of an open pit operation
