Diamond Drilling Commences in Cote D’Ivoire

Predictive Discovery Limited (ASX: PDI) is pleased to announce that Joint Venture partner, Toro Gold Limited, has just commenced a 1,500m diamond drilling program at the Nyangboue prospect on the Boundiali permit in Cote D’Ivoire (Figure 1):

  • Drilling is aimed at understanding the controls on gold mineralisation intersected in the initial RC drilling program last year. This obtained some excellent gold results (Figure 2), including :

o 20m at 10.5g/t Au from 38m including 1m at 144.5g/t Au,

  • 28m at 4.0g/t Au from 3m including 1m at 49.7g/t Au, and

  • 9m at 7.9g/t Au from 99m including 1m at 44.7g/t Au.

  • Drill hole design has been based on a program of re-logging the RC chips, geological mapping and two geophysical surveys conducted in the second half of 2016.

  • Results of this diamond drilling program will guide an infill RC drilling program aimed at tightening the drill line spacing from the current 320m to either 160m or 80m. This is planned for the June Quarter.

Mr Paul Roberts, Predictive’s Managing Director said: “We are very pleased to announce that drilling is again underway in the Toro Gold JV starting with diamond drilling of the new, Nyangboue gold discovery in northern Cote D’Ivoire .

Drilling is also planned on some other Cote D’Ivoire permits in the current field season, including Ferkessedougou South, Ferkessedougou North and the Kokoumbo/Beriaboukro ground package in the Toro Gold Joint Venture, and the Bobosso project in the XMI Joint Venture. In addition, ground geochemical surveys are ongoing on the Toro Gold Joint Venture ground and we are expecting initial geochemical exploration work to commence on the new Cote D’Ivoire permit applications announced on 6[th] February 2017 as soon as they are granted.

This is an exciting time for Predictive shareholders. We expect a steady rate of important news flow coming out of our Cote D’Ivoire projects for much of 2017.”
