Golden Rim identifies extensive additional oxide gold target areas at Bereko
14 July 2022 - West African gold explorer Golden Rim Resources Ltd (ASX: GMR; Golden Rim or Company - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/golden-rim-resources-ltd/) is pleased to announce assay results from a program of infill auger drilling at its Kada Gold Project (Kada) in Guinea.
Highlights
- Golden Rim has received all assays from infill auger drilling at the Bereko Prospect (218 holes for 1,990m), 7km north of the 930,000oz[i] gold Inferred Mineral Resource at the Massan Prospect.
- Infill auger drilling returned results up to 960ppb gold, confirming several parallel, north-south-trending, bedrock gold anomalies at Bereko with a cumulative strike length of more than 5.5km.
- Auger gold anomalies extend from areas where Golden Rim’s recent initial program of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling discovered high-grade and/or broad zones of oxide gold mineralisation, with intersections including 11m @ 6.3g/t gold,10m @ 5.6g/t gold, and 27m @ 1.2g/t gold[ii].
- Auger gold anomalies provide exceptional target areas for Golden Rim to delineate strike extensions to this highly significant oxide gold mineralisation.
- Golden Rim has extended its Induced Polarisation (IP)/ground magnetics geophysical survey, and results are now expected in late August before plans will be finalised for follow-up RC drilling at Bereko.
Golden Rim’s Managing Director, Craig Mackay, said:
“Systematic auger drilling to identify areas with anomalous bedrock gold beneath the shallow laterite cover has been hugely successful at Kada. At Bereko, we have hit significant bedrock oxide gold in almost every RC hole targeting the auger anomalies. Initial RC drilling results strongly suggest the area could deliver satellite oxide gold resources we can add to our existing gold inventory.
“The initial auger drilling coverage at Bereko was broadly spaced to allow for a large under-explored area to be covered quickly. Now, with the completion of the infill auger drilling we have considerably improved our understanding of the extent and trend of the auger gold anomalies and we are better placed to target the next round of RC drilling to locate more oxide gold mineralisation.
“The extent of the gold anomalies at Bereko, with a cumulative strike length of 5.5km, is highly significant given the current 930,000oz Mineral Resource, 7km to the south, extends over 1km.”

Auger Drilling at Bereko Prospect
Golden Rim’s exploration to date at the Bereko Prospect has discovered multiple parallel zones of oxide gold mineralisation along the broad 15km Kada Gold Corridor, 7km north of the 930,000oz Inferred Mineral Resource at the Massan Prospect (Figures 1 & 2). The Kada Gold Corridor lies along the Siguiri Mine trend which extends another 26km north of Bereko to AngloGold Ashanti’s +10Moz gold Siguiri Mine.
Golden Rim recently completed a 218-hole (1,990m) auger drilling program at Bereko, with holes drilled on 100m x 50m pattern to infill Golden Rim’s first pass 200m x 50m spaced auger drilling. The auger holes are vertical in orientation with an average depth of 9m. Drilling was designed to penetrate the shallow laterite cover to obtain a bottom of hole sample in each hole of the weathered bedrock (saprolite) beneath for gold analysis.
Hole locations are depicted on Figure 1. Golden Rim has received assays for all holes with results reported in this announcement.
Results from the infill auger drilling are highly encouraging with the delineation of several parallel, north-south-trending bedrock gold anomalies (Western and Eastern anomalies) with a cumulative strike length of more than 5.5km (Figure 1). These extensive and coherent gold anomalies extend from areas where Golden Rim’s recent initial RC drilling discovered high-grade and/or broad zones of oxide gold mineralisation, with intersections that include 11m @ 6.3g/t gold, 10m @ 5.6g/t gold and 27m @ 1.2g/t gold. This oxide gold mineralisation remains open to the north and south, and at depth. These newly defined auger gold anomalies provide exceptional target areas for Golden Rim to identify further strike extensions to this highly significant oxide gold mineralisation.
The main bedrock gold auger anomalies at Bereko are described below:
- Western Anomaly
The Western Anomaly is the most coherent at Bereko and extends for 2.3km (Figure 1). Peak auger gold results include 960ppb gold, 830ppb gold and 720ppb gold. Towards the south, the Western Anomaly seems to coalesce with the Eastern Anomaly.
Very limited RC drilling has been conducted along the Western Anomaly. In the northern portion of the anomaly, Golden Rim achieved a highly significant oxide gold intersection of 11m @ 6.3g/t gold from 43m, including 2m @ 30.6g/t gold in KRC095. This is the best drill gold intercept obtained at Bereko to date. There is then no RC drilling along the Western Anomaly for 2km until hole KRC097, which returned 14m @ 1.2g/t gold from 55m in the southern portion of the anomaly.
To the west of the Western Anomaly, auger drilling has also outlined a smaller, parallel anomaly that extends for 800m. The infill auger drilling returned multiple results >100ppb gold. This anomaly has no RC drilling to date and will be a target for further investigation.
- Eastern Anomaly
The Eastern Anomaly is not as continuous and seems to comprise three zones (Northern, Central and Southern) which are possibly separated by faulting (Figure 1).
In the Northern Zone, there is a highly coherent and strong anomaly extending for 1.2km which delivered a peak auger gold result of 580ppb gold. The anomaly encompasses an area of artisanal mining on stockwork veins in bedrock beneath the shallow laterite cover which have returned rock chip samples results up to 171.3g/t gold. Golden Rim has concentrated RC drilling to date around the artisanal mining area, which returned encouraging oxide gold intersections including 10m @ 5.6g/t gold from 5m in KRC092 and 13m @ 1.8g/t gold from 21m in KRC098. The most coherent portion of the anomaly extends 900m south of the artisanal mining area and has not yet been tested by RC drilling. New auger results up to 380ppb gold were obtained from this southern extension to the gold anomaly.
The Central Zone extends for 600m and has a peak auger result of 700ppb gold. No RC drilling has been conducted within this zone to date.
The Southern Zone is the broadest area of bedrock gold anomalism outlined by the auger drilling at Bereko. It extends for 1.2km and has a peak auger gold result of 2,720ppb gold. To date, Golden Rim has drilled two RC holes within this area and each one has intersected significant oxide mineralisation, including 27m @ 1.2g/t gold from 27m in KRC099 and 13m @ 1.8g/t gold from 21m in KRC098 (Figure 2). This oxide mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth. Infill auger drilling both north and south of this RC drilling returned highly anomalous new gold results (up to 960ppb and 390ppb gold). These areas are to be tested in the next RC drilling program for extensions to the oxide gold mineralisation.

Current Progress & Next Steps
Golden Rim has extended its IP and ground magnetics geophysical survey at Bereko and Massan, with three dipole-dipole IP lines (total of 3.6-line km) now planned for Massan (Figure 3). The survey is expected to be completed in approximately one month.
Golden Rim will use results of its RC and auger drilling programs as well as the geophysical survey to guide further exploration at Kada during 2022, including planning further drilling to follow up the highly encouraging initial drilling results received from Bereko and around the Mineral Resource area at Massan.

ABOUT GOLDEN RIM RESOURCES
Golden Rim Resources Limited is an ASX listed exploration company with a portfolio of advanced minerals projects in Guinea and Burkina Faso, West Africa and in Chile, South America.
The Company’s flagship project is the advanced Kada Gold Project in eastern Guinea. Guinea remains one of the most under-explored countries in West Africa. Golden Rim has outlined a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource of 25.5Mt at 1.1g/t gold for 930Koz[iii], the majority of which is shallow oxide-transitional gold mineralisation. Golden Rim is focussed on growing the Mineral Resource. Most of the 200km2 project area remains poorly explored and there is considerable upside for the discovery of additional oxide gold mineralisation.
The Company discovered and has outlined an Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 50Mt at 1.3g/t gold for 2Moz[iv] at the Kouri Gold Project, located in north-east Burkina Faso. Kouri covers 325km2 of highly prospective Birimian greenstones. Exploration has successfully located several high-grade gold shoots. Golden Rim recently signed an agreement with BAOR SARL to sell Kouri.
In northern Chile, Golden Rim has the Paguanta Copper and Silver-Lead-Zinc Project. Historically a silver mine, the Company has outlined a Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.4Mt at 88g/t silver, 5.0% zinc and 1.4% lead for 6.8Moz silver, 265Mlb zinc and 74Mlb lead[v] at the Patricia Prospect. The Mineral Resource remains open.
At the adjacent Loreto Copper Project in Chile, Golden Rim has signed an Option and Joint Venture agreement with Teck Chile whereby Teck Chile can acquire up to a 75% interest in the project.

Sampling Techniques |
Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc.). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.
|
The sampling described in this report refers to auger drilling. AUGER: Vertical holes were drilled on a 50m spacing along 400m lines. Hole depths range from 5m to 20m. The average hole depth is ~10m. Bottom of hole samples were collected by qualified geologists or under geological supervision. The samples are judged to be representative of the rock being drilled. The nature and quality of sampling is carried out under QAQC procedures as per industry standards. |
Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. |
Sampling is guided by Golden Rim’s protocols and Quality Control procedures as per industry standards. |
|
|
Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.
|
Auger drilling samples are firstly crushed using a Jaw Crusher and there after crushed to 90% passing -2mm using a RSD Boyd crusher. A 1kg split sample is then pulverised via LM2 to a nominal 90% passing -75μm. Assayed by SGS in Ouagadougou 24 hour,1kg Leachwell gold analysis. |
|
Drilling Techniques |
Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details (e.g. core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc.). |
Auger drilling was carried out by Sahara Geoservices. The rig is a landcruiser mounted power auger rig. The location of each hole was recorded by handheld GPS with positional accuracy of approximately +/-5m. Location data was collected in WGS 84, UTM zone 29N. All drill holes were planned to be drilled at -90 degrees. |

|
Auger Samples were not riffled nor split. |
|
|
For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.
|
Samples were transported by road to SGS Laboratory in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The sample preparation for all samples follows industry best practice. At the laboratory, all samples were weighed, dried and crushed to -2mm in a jaw crusher. A split of the crushed sample was subsequently pulverised in a ping mill to achieve a nominal particle size of 90% passing 75 μm. |
|
|
Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples.
|
Golden Rim has protocols that cover the sample preparation at the laboratories and the collection and assessment of data to ensure that accurate steps are used in producing representative samples. The crusher and pulveriser are flushed with barren material at the start of every batch. |
|
|
Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in-situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling.
|
Sampling is carried out in accordance with Golden Rim’s protocols as per industry best practice. Field QC procedures involve the use of certified reference material as assay standards, blanks and duplicates for the auger samples. |
|
Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
The sample sizes are considered appropriate to correctly represent the style of mineralisation, the thickness and consistency of the intersections. |
|
Quality of assay data and laboratory tests |
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. |
Auger drilling: Assayed by 24 hour, 1kg Leachwell gold analysis. The analytical method is considered appropriate for this mineralisation style and is of industry standard. The quality of the assaying and laboratory procedures are considered to be appropriate for this deposit type. |
For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc., the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. |
No geophysical tools were used to determine any element concentrations. |
|
Nature of quality control procedures adopted (e.g. standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (i.e. lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
Sample preparation checks for fineness were carried out by the laboratory as part of their internal procedures to ensure the grind size of 90% passing 75 microns. Internal laboratory QAQC checks are reported by the laboratory. Review of the internal laboratory QAQC suggests the laboratory is performing within acceptable limits. For Rock Chip samples, Golden Rim insert 1 blank and one standard for every 40 samples. For auger drilling, insertion rates are:

Whether the data spacing, and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. |
Auger holes not used for Mineral Resource estimation. |
|
Whether sample compositing has been applied. |
There was no sample composting. |
|
Orientation of data in relation to geological structure |
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. |
Not applicable for auger drilling.
|
