Highlights from recent drilling at the Southern Arc prospect include 8.6 grams per tonne gold over an estimated true width of 13.6 meters and 9.3 g/t gold over 11.8 meters. These results reinforce the project's potential for near-term resource growth, the company said.

Infill drilling at Area A, Area D and Karakara have also returned encouraging results, including a highlight of 113.7 g/t gold over 6.4 meters estimated true width.

Several nearby coincident geochemistry and geophysical anomalies further underscore the exploration potential of Southern Arc, including possible linkages to the adjacent Kassasoko deposit, located approximately one kilometer to the west.
