Awalé Resources Limited reported further gold intercepts from the high grade gold discovery at the Empire Prospect. These new results both extend the mineralized envelope along strike and down dip as well as confirm the internal continuity of mineralization at Empire. Hole OERC0021 confirms the robust nature of mineralization at Empire, whilst OERC008 and the 40m extension of hole OEDD003 extend mineralization down dip to a vertical depth of greater than 150m on the original discovery section. The current mineralized envelope at Empire has now been extended to approximately 200m in length, 150 metres vertically, and the width ranges from 30 to 80 m. Encouragingly the mineralization remains open at depth and along strike. Furthermore, the assay pending deep hole OEDD0015 has intercepted target geology and mineralization and extends potential mineralization to a vertical depth of greater than 200m. Visible gold has been observed at 8 separate intervals between 230 and 300 metres down hole and highlights the potential for mineralization broadening at depth. Further to this a 3km long untested soil anomaly extends toward the south east from current drilling. Visible gold in fresh rock has been noted in every diamond hole that has intersected the mineralized diorite. The 30 hole (3,573m) phase 1 drilling program at Empire has now been completed with only 2 holes remaining to be reported (OERC0022 and OEDD0015 - the deep hole drilled under current known mineralization). Assays for these holes are expected toward the end of February. HIGHLIGHTS: Best intercepts from this batch of results include: OERC0008 Step-back hole to Discovery Hole OEDD0001 - 16m at 1.3 g/t gold ("Au") from 81m downhole, including 1m at 11.3 g/t Au from 94m downhole - 10m at 2.3 g/t Au from 109m, including 5m at 3.9 g/t Au from 109m downhole OERC0021 Step-out hole 200m along strike from Discovery Section - 32m at 0.9g/t Au from 32 m downhole, including 2m at 4.8g/t Au from 53m downhole - 34m at 1.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) from 96m downhole, including 18m at 3g/t Au from 97m downhole and 2m at 15.5 g/t Au from 111m downhole - 29m at 1.2g/t Au from 134m downhole, including 11m at 2.5g/t Au from 140m downhole and 2m at 5.6g/t Au from 140m downhole OEDD0003 extension - 3m at 4.5 g/t Au from 193m downhole OERC005 twin of OEDD0001 - 22m at 1.5g/t Au from 22m downhole Including 1m intervals of 4.4 g/t Au, 6g/t Au and 16.6g/t Au, from 27, 41 and 46 m downhole respectively. These results compliment the following previously reported results: OEDD0001 - 18.15 m at 4.9 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") from 40 m downhole, including 10.4 m at 7.9 g/t Au from 40m downhole OEDD0002 - 27 m at 3.1 g/t Au from 43.2 m downhole including 9 m at 5.3 g/t Au from 43.2 m downhole. OEDD0003 - 19m at 0.9 g/t Au from 151m downhole including 1m at 4.54 g/t Au from 152 m downhole. OEDD009 - 17m at 2.6 g/t Au from 40 m downhole, including 2.65m at 15.4 g/t Au from 40m,- 16.74m at 1.9 g/t Au from 74.26m downhole, including 9.28m at 2.7g/t Au from 80.72m and, 16m at 1.8 g/t Au from 98m downhole, including 3m at 7.6 g/t Au from 111m downhole.
