Tijirit Gold Project, Mauritania
Previous historical drilling conducted by Shield Mining Ltd (now 100% owned by Gryphon) on the project area focussed on banded iron formation (BIF) hosted mineralisation, however broad 50 to +100 metre wide zones of alternated „halo? mineralisation show similarities to mineralised greenschist at the adjacent Tasiast Gold Mine that develop peripheral and along strike to the main ore body at Tasiast.
The Company?s maiden 30,000 metre RC/DD drill campaign continues to test these broad mineralised „halo? zones as well as the first 10 highly prospective gold targets over the 1,400km2 Tijirit Gold Project. Samples from the first of these targets have been sent to the lab for assaying and results due during Q2 2012.
