Golden Rim Resources Ltd ( Golden Rim ; ASX: GMR) today announced that ongoing mapping and rock chip sampling across the southern portion of the Korongou Project has delineated multiple new gold mineralised structures in two areas, the Big Veins Prospect and the Namagdo Prospect, that extend over a strike length of 7.5km.
A total of 63 rock chip samples have been collected across Korongou since January 2014. Assay results are listed in Table 1. Samples have been taken from in situ outcrop and artisanal workings.
Big Veins Prospect
The gold mineralisation at Big Veins is exposed in multiple structures within a 1.2km wide corridor and over 4.2km of strike.
The most significant mineralisation is hosted in at least two parallel structures, with sheared and interbedded iron-rich volcaniclastics and graphitic schists that are in contact with intermediate volcanics (andesite). The structures are locally intruded by albite-rich dykes and stocks.
Gold is hosted in the iron-rich volcaniclastic rock bands which have been subjected to silica +/carbonate alteration. It is probable that the iron in the volcaniclastics is related to disseminated pyrite. The two parallel gold mineralised zones are at least 10m wide and lie 150m to 200m apart. The mineralisation strikes between 050 and 060 degrees and is open to the SW and open to the NE where it extends beneath lateritic cover.
The most prominent and central zone of mineralisation at Big Veins extends for 1.6km and has been subject to more intensive artisanal mining.
Previous reconnaissance rock chip sampling from Big Veins returned significant results, including 22.3 g/t, 9.7 g/t and 4.5g/t gold in the central target.

New rock chip samples at Big Veins have returned results up to 5.3 g/t, 4.5 g/t and 4.3 g/t gold.
No drilling has ever been conducted at Big Veins. A follow up reverse circulation (RC) drilling program is currently planned by Golden Rim. Initially drilling will be focused on testing the mineralisation outlined in the 1.6km central zone.
The style of the gold mineralisation at Big Veins is unusual for Burkina Faso, where gold is usually associated with quartz veining. Golden Rim believes the mineralisation at Big Veins may be similar to some of the gold mineralisation discovered in the region surrounding the historic, high grade Poura Mine (1.5Moz), in Burkina Faso, which closed in 1999. Newmont Mining Corporation secured the mine in 2012 and are expecting to re-open the operation. At the Larafella Prospect, near Poura, gold has been discovered within lenses of albitite (5-8m thick) that are interbedded with metasediments and metavolcanics.
Namagdo Prospect
Gold mineralisation at Namagdo lies along strike to the NE of Big Veins and has been confirmed for over 3.3km of strike.
Active and inactive artisanal diggings have exposed mineralisation over most of this strike length.
The gold mineralisation is hosted in multiple structures within a 2km wide corridor. The gold is associated with quartz veining and with siliceous-carbonate-hematite-pyrite-rich sheared andesite.
Previous reconnaissance rock chip sampling from Namagdo returned significant results, including 108 g/t, 18.9 g/t, 16.9 g/t, 9.6 g/t and 7.8 g/t gold.
New rock chip samples at Namagdo have returned results including 8.9 g/t, 8.3 g/t, 6.4 g/t and 5.8 g/t gold .
Most of the Namadgo Prospect remains untested by drilling. Two scout RC holes were previously drilled by Golden Rim at the northern margin of Namagdo. Multiple zones of gold mineralisation were intersected in hole NKRC04 which returned 5m at 1.8 g/t (66m-71m) and 11m at 3.6 g/t gold (77m–88m). A significant drilling program is planned for Namagdo to follow up the intercepts in NKRC04 and to test the mineralisation outlined over the strike length of 3.3km.
Golden Rim’s Managing Director, Craig Mackay, said “The recent mapping and rock chip sampling conducted in the southern portion of Korongou has confirmed that a broad gold mineralised corridor with multiple gold mineralised structures extends for at least 16km.”
“Korongou had been locked up by the previous owner over the past decade for small scale mining and very little exploration work has been conducted. We believe it is one of the largest and most prospective areas of gold mineralisation in Burkina Faso that has not yet been subject to a modern and systematic exploration campaign.”
“Many drilling targets have been identified and we remain confident that with additional drilling Korongou has the potential to quickly deliver Golden Rim a major gold resource,” Mr Mackay said.

Appendix 1: JORC Code, 2012 edition, Assessment and Reporting Criteria
Section 1: Sampling Techniques and Data
| Criteria | JORC Code Explanation | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling Techniques |
• Nature and quality of sampling (eg 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. • Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. • Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
• Rock chip samples are random (grab) samples taken of quartz vein material in surface outcrop or in shallow artisanal mine workings carried out as part of a geological mapping exercise in areas of geological interest. Sample size is nominally 2 to 3 kilograms. • Samples were all collected by qualified geologists or under geological supervision. The sampling was part of an early stage exploration programme aimed at locating gold mineralisation and no claim is made as to the representivity of each sample. • Location of each sample was recorded by hand held GPS with positional accuracy of approximately +/- 5 metres. • All rock chip samples were submitted to Bigs Laboratory in Ouagadougou for preparation and analysis by 50g Fire Assay (LDL 0.005 ppm gold). |
| Drilling techniques |
• Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg 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). |
• No drilling was undertaken |
| Drill sample recovery |
• Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. • Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. • Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarsematerial. |
• No drilling was undertaken |
| Logging | • Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. • Whether logging is qualitative or quantitativein nature.Core (orcostean, |
• Each sample was briefly described geologically by the geologist involved (using a standardised logging system). The sample details were entered into Golden Rim’s geochemical sample database. • The sample results are to be regarded |

as semi-quantative. | |
| Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation |
• If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. • If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. • For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. • Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. • 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. • Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
• Samples were transported by road to Bigs Laboratory in Ouagadougou. • At the laboratory all samples were weighed, dried and crush 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 85% passing 75um. • Sample sizes and laboratory preparation techniques are considered to be appropriate for early stage gold exploration. |
| 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. • 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. • Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
• Rock chip samples are analysed for gold at Bigs Laboratory by 50g Fire Assay with AAS finish to a lower detection limit of 0.005 ppm gold. Fire assay is considered a total assay technique. • Internal laboratory QAQC checks are reported by the laboratory. • Review of the internal laboratory QAQC suggests the laboratory is performing within acceptable limits. |
| Verification of sampling and assaying |
• The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. • The use of twinned holes. • Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols. • Discuss any adjustment to assay data. |
• Sample data is compiled and digitally captured by Golden Rim geologists. • The compiled digital data is verified and validated by the Company’s database geologist. • Reported results are compiled by the Company’s Senior Geologist and the Managing Director. • There were no adjustments to the assaydata. |
| Location of data points |
• Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down- hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. • Specification of the grid system used. • Quality and adequacy of topographic |
• Sample locations were taken at the time of sampling, using a hand held GPS, with horizontal accuracy of approx. 5m. • Location data was collected in UTM grid WGS84, zone 30 north and zone 31north. |

This fault system controls a number of major gold deposits in Burkina Faso, including Kiaka (5.9 Moz), Bomboré (5.2 Moz) and Essakan (6.2 Moz). • The mineralisation lies in a package of highly altered volcanic and volcaniclastic host rocks and is associated with a major gold-in-soil anomaly and a prominent dilational structural jog along a regional NE- trendingshear zone. |
| Drill hole Information |
• A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: oeasting and northing of the drill hole collar elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar odip and azimuth of the hole odown hole length and interception depth ohole length. • If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearlyexplain whythis is the case. |
• No new drilling reported in this announcement |
| Data aggregation |
• In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade |
• No weighting or high grade cutting techniques have been applied to the |

| methods | truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. • Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. • The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearlystated. |
data reported. • Assay results are generally quoted rounded to 1 decimal place. • No new drill hole intersections are not reported in this announcement. • Metal equivalent values are not reported in this announcement. |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
• These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. • If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. • If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
• The reported results are from early stage reconnaissance rock chip sampling • No new drill hole intersections are not reported in this announcement.. |
| Diagrams | • Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
• Maps are provided in the main text. |
| Balanced reporting |
• Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
• All sample results are presented in the table in the main text. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
• Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
• There is no other exploration data which is considered material to the results reported in the announcement. |
| Further work | • The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling). • Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commerciallysensitive. |
• RC drilling is planned to follow up the results reported in this announcement. |
