West African Resources Limited reported further high-grade drilling results from its Sanbrado Gold Project, Burkina Faso. Highlights: High-grade results from depth at M1 South include; TAN17-DD166B-WD1: 4m at 74.4 g/t Au from 567.5m including 0.5m at 520 g/t Au; TAN17-DD166B-WD2: 9m at 17.18 g/t Au from 551.5m including 1m at 111 g/t Au; TAN17-DD169: 5m at 10.42 g/t Au from 486m including 1m at 44 g/t Au; TAN17-DD169: 16.5m at 15.68 g/t Au from 511m including 0.5m at 154 g/t Au; TAN17-DD169-WD1: 3.5m at 30.46 g/t Au from 469m including at 0.5m at 198 g/t Au; TAN17-DD169-WD1: 10m at 54.2 g/t Au from 499m including 2m at 247 g/t Au; Current drilling targeting upgrade of Inferred resources at depth; Four drill rigs currently on-site double shifting, infilling and extending mineralization; Funded to complete all work programs with approximately $20m cash at bank. M1 South Drilling Program: Drilling at M1 South is currently targeting infill of Inferred Resources 350-500m below surface on at least 25m x 25m pattern. The primary aim of this drilling program is to upgrade Inferred material to Indicated category which will be included in the underground mine schedule to be incorporated in the Feasibility Study due for completion in mid-2018. This drilling program is providing essential structural information and needs to be completed before extensional drilling recommences at +500m below surface. Recent drilling has demonstrated excellent continuity of high grade gold mineralisation in areas of previously sparsely drilled Inferred Resources. Wedge hole TAN17-DD169-WD1 returned a spectacular result of 3.5m at 30.46 g/t Au from 469m including at 0.5m 198 g/t Au and 10m at 54.2 g/t Au from 499m including 2m at 247 g/t Au, while the parent hole TAN17-DD169 returned a solid intercept of 5m at 10.42 g/t Au from 486m including 1m at 44 g/t Au and 16.5m at 15.68 g/t Au from 511m including 0.5 at 154 g/t Au. Given the grade and tenor of recent results, it is expected that Inferred Resources will be upgraded in terms of both category and grade.Individual results through selected mineralised zones are presented below in Tables 1-3.
