TABAKOROLE LANDHOLDING INCREASED TO 830KM[2]

Marvel Gold Limited (ASX: MVL) ( Marvel or the Company ) is pleased to announce further strategic tenement acquisitions increasing the landholding at the Tabakorole Gold Project ( Tabakorole or the Project ), located in southern Mali, to 830km[2 ] (see Figure 1). The Project is held through 100%-owned licences as well as two separate joint ventures, with Oklo Resources Limited (ASX: OKU) ( Oklo JV) , in which the Company holds an 80% interest) and with Altus Strategies plc ( Altus JV) , in which the Company currently holds a 51% interest.

Binding tenement purchase agreements have been executed with three separate vendors covering six new permits (see tenements 6-11 in Figure 1 and acquisition details in Appendix 1). Figure 1 shows the location and ownership status of all permits comprising the Tabakorole Project (note licences contiguous to the Tabakorole permit now form part of the JV with UK-listed Altus Strategies plc).

Managing Director, Phil Hoskins , commented: “ We are extremely pleased to have consolidated such a land position around the already significant Tabakorole deposit. Our strategy is to develop Tabakorole into a standalone mining operation by consolidating a significant landholding and undertaking systematic exploration to make additional gold discoveries will maximise our chances of achieving that strategy .”

The acquisition of the Sirakoroble Sud licence in particular is strategically important, as it not only fills a gap in the previous landholding position but is located along the north-west trending structural corridor identified by magnetics and punctuated by a strong trend of geochemical anomalism. The location of Sirakoroble Sud relative to the multi-element soil geochemistry (ASX announcement 29 June 2021) is shown in Figure 2 below.

The next steps, as with all of the Company’s newly acquired licences, is to collect multi-element soil geochemistry datasets and potentially follow up with ground magnetics, a survey technique that is working very well in this region to define the structures. Targets will then be ranked and prioritised against the 40 discrete targets generated from the regional datasets collected during 2020-21.

The Company will also continue to consolidate its landholding around Tabakorole, with a focus on tenements within a 25km radius of the existing deposit and situated in the interpreted structural corridor.

This announcement has been approved for release by the Board.
