DRILLING EXTENDS DASSA GOLD SYSTEM AT VRANSO PROJECT, BURKINA FASO
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Strike length of gold bearing system at the Dassa Prospect extended by 1,000m
-
Drilling at two other prospects confirmed gold mineralisation and validate targets
-
Airborne magnetic survey to commence shortly at the Vranso Project
Arrow Minerals Limited (ASX: AMD ) ( Arrow or the Company ) is pleased to report the results of its recently completed 35 hole, 3,472m reverse circulation (RC) drilling programme conducted on three priority prospects, Dassa, Guido and Semapoun, at the Vranso Project, Burkina Faso.

Dassa Prospect
The Dassa Deposit, shown in Figures 1 and 2 , is a near-surface, shallow-dipping, mostly oxidised gold mineralised system extending over 3km in a NE-SW direction which remains open along strike and at depth. Six shallow RC holes were drilled totalling 424m to test for a further southern extension of the Dassa mineralised system.

Figure 2. Interpreted mineralized envelope at the Dassa Prospect that remains open to the South and East.
Gold analytical results from holes DW_RC_21_109, 110 & 111, drilled 1km further south from the nearest previous drillhole, confirmed the continuation of the mineralised system at the Dassa Prospect. Hole DW_RC_21_110 intersected 1.41g/t Au over 5m from 59 metres.
This result increases the interpreted strike of the known shallow oxide mineralised system to more than 4km. The deposit comes to surface, extends more than 300m downdip, and ranges from 2 to 15m in thickness. Further exploration drilling is required to clearly define the extent and magnitude of the Dassa Deposit.

Guido Prospect
At the Guido Prospect, ( Figure 1 ) Arrow undertook a 19-hole RC drilling program (2,288m). Nearsurface gold mineralisation at the Guido Prospect is hosted by two NNE-SSW trending structures extending over 3 km of strike.
Significant gold mineralisation intercepted as part of the Arrow drilling program included:
-
1.06 g/t Au over 17m from 21 metres (GUD_RC_21_001)
-
2.17 g/t Au over 8m from 83 metres (GUD_RC_21_010)
-
0.92 g/t Au over 11m from 145 metres (GUD_RC_21_011)
Semapoun Prospect
The Semapoun Prospect lies within the structural corridor defined by the main Boromo Shear Zone North of the Guido Prospect ( Figure 1 ). Arrow drilled 10 RC holes (760m) to test for gold mineralisation. The best result reported at Semapoun was 1.06 g/t Au over 6m from 31 metres.
Work at Semapoun including detailed geology, structural studies, mapping and sampling is being undertaken.
Vranso Project
The Vranso Project, located 100km west of the capital of Burkina Faso, Ouagadougou, consists of ten semi-contiguous exploration permits extending for over 80 km along the main NE-SW trending Boromo Shear Zone, host to numerous multimillion-ounce gold deposits including Bissa, Bouly, Poura and Batie West. The Vranso Project encompasses 1,300 km[2] of the richly gold endowed Paleoproterozoic Birimian Greenstone Belt, the majority of which is yet to be evaluated using modern gold exploration techniques ( Figure 3 ).
