More positive exploration results at Savoyardy
Kentor Gold Limited (ASX Code: KGL) (Kentor or the Company) has increased the potential of it ’ s Savoyardy gold project with a second shallow high grade intersection on Section 5.
A rock chip sample from a newly discovered mineralised zone to the north has also returned a high gold grade.
Surface Drilling on Section 5
Section 5 is well outside the area included in the JORC compliant resource statement by Hellman and Schofield, lying some 150 along strike to the south. Shallow surface drilling has now yielded high grade intersections on both Section 5 and Section 6 at depths of less than 100 metres.

Diamond drill hole DD40 was designed to test confidence that in the single intersection of 1m at 10.3 g/t from DD20 in last year ’ s drilling campaign. The intersection of 3m at 16.2 g/t gold (estimated true width is approximately 1m) confirmed the results of DD20, and indicates that high grade intersections are repeatable.

Exploration North of Rudny Stream
Geological mapping on the north bank of the Rudny Stream identified massive sulphide mineralisation on the steep slope above the stream. A chip sample from the mineralised area returned an assay grade of 11g/t. There is no record of any previous work in the same area.

Savoyardy is one of two high grade, low cost gold mine developments being planned by Kentor in the Kyrgyz Republic:
-
Savoyardy, proposed to commence in 2010 at the initial rate of 10,000 oz gold per year for a minimum of three years, subject to final decision later this year; and
-
Andash, a larger gold-copper project targeted for production in 2011 at the rate of 60,000 oz gold and 5,000 tonnes copper of per year for eight years, subject to current due diligence.
At Savoyardy, surface and underground diamond drilling commenced in July with the aim of extending and upgrading the existing resource. Extensive underground access is available from previous exploration work conducted in the 1970 ’ s.
The on site drill rigs have now completed the planned nine hole surface drilling program, and seven hole underground drilling program. Analysis of results to date has led to the approval of a further five surface drill holes to explore shallow mineralisation between sections 2, 3, and 4 which is scheduled to be completed by the end of September.
Commenting on the latest results, Kentor Managing Director, Simon Milroy, said:
“ The results from the drilling on section five improve our understanding of the mineralisation along strike to the south. Assay results from the drilling on section six will be available soon. ”
“ The high grade rock chip sample to the north of the Rudny creek gives us a strong indication that the mineralisation may also be continuing to the north. ”
Background
The Savoyardy Gold project is located approximately 145 kilometres south-east of the city of Osh in the Kyrgyz Republic. The Savoyardy project is also adjacent to and along strike from the Sawayerdun Project in the Xinjiang Province of China. Majestic Gold Corporation announced a resource of 1.5Moz of gold from results to date, and Canadian listed GobiMin has recently announced its commitment to farm into the project.
Exploration trenches and adits constructed at Savoyardy in the 1970 ’ s show the presence of high grade gold and antimony contained in a number of structures with widths of up to 27 metres. The mineralised structures can be traced for over seven kilometres to the south-west along strike where it meets the Savoyardy exploration licence at the Chinese border.
About Kentor Gold
Kentor Gold Limited (ASX Code: KGL) is an Australian-based company formed in 1998 as a specialist gold explorer.

– Kentor is considering the development of two gold mines in the Kyrgyz Republic
-
Andash over which Kentor has an option to purchase an 80% interest, and
-
Savoyardy over which Kentor has an option to purchase 100% of the project. Kentor has completed a pre-feasibility study to examine the potential for bringing the Savoyardy gold project into early production with mine start-up targeted for 2010.
