Great news that we have started drilling and there should be a lot more news to come in the coming days and weeks.
Looking for an update from Ghana next re. very significant drilling results from Homase/Akrokerri.
Homase/Akrokerri Project
The Company recently added a second drill rig to its Homase/Akrokerri prospect. A contract was signed with Geodrill Ghana Limited to provide diamond drilling services to test two geologically-distinct targets in the Akrokerri permit area and to accelerate the Company's resource drilling programme. The first target is a linear zone of artisanal mining activity on granitic outcrops that coincides with a significant gold in soil anomaly and high gold concentrations in samples of outcropping granite and quartz vein. Results from rock samples included gold values of 16.0 g/t, 11.8 g/t, 7.3 g/t and 5.7 g/t. The second target is a quartz vein from which colonial miners extracted 75,000 ounces of gold between 1900 and 1909 at an average grade of 24.7 g/t. Underground mining of the vein was limited to less than half of its 700 metre known strike extent. On completion of the drilling of these targets, the new drill rig will be moved close to the present location of the Company's primary drill rig where it will be used to accelerate the systematic testing of down-dip extensions of GoldStone's 405,600 ounce gold resource along its entire four kilometre strike.
This from : 16/04/2012
Assay results are pending for six drill holes targeted at gold mineralisation along north-west trending structures in the Akrokerri granite and the high-grade Akrokerri quartz vein, as are four drill holes targeted at depth extensions of the Homase/Akrokerri gold resource. Since June 2011, when the drilling programme at Homase commenced, 32 drill holes totalling 8,569 metres have been completed.
These shoud be released very soon.
