Mogu Prospect

Location:	Burkina Faso - 260km south-west of Ouagadougou
Ownership:	100% Orbis Gold (via 3 year option agreement)
Primary Target:	Gold

	Rock chip samples include - 2m @ 22.90g/t Au and 1m @ 12.90g/t Au
	Minimal exploration to date (no Orbis drill holes)
	5km structural target defined in hi-resolution geophysics
	Phase 1 soil sample programs proposed

 

The Mogu Prospect is located in south-west Burkina Faso 260km from Ouagadougou and lies within Orbis Gold’s Milpo exploration permit (figure 1).

The Mogu Prospect overlies greenstone lithologies and was acquired by Orbis to target prospective regional-scale structures that host known gold mineralisation both to the north and south of the prospect area.

The Mogu Prospect is centred over a prominent topographic ridge that rises some 80 metres above the surrounding landscape. Gold-bearing pyritic quartz “lodes” outcrop along the ridge top and are locally exploited by small-scale artisanal gold mining activity (figure 2).

Orbis has completed reconnaissance rock chip and grab sampling of the quartz lodes over an approximate 200m x 200m area. The sampling recorded high grade samples including:

• 2m @ 22.9g/t Au
• 1m @ 12.9g/t Au
• 1m @ 13.1g/t Au

Subsidiary sub-parallel gold mineralised quartz veining has also been identified some 500m to the east of the main prospect area (figure 3).

In order to better define the regional setting of the gold mineralisation at Mogu Orbis has completed a high resolution geophysical (magnetic and radiometric) survey of the greater prospect area. Interpretation of the survey indicates a significant east-west trending structural gold target underlying the Mogu Prospect that extends over a minimum 5km strike length (figure 4).

Additional structural gold targets have also been identified in the geophysical survey outside the immediate Mogu Prospect area.

Geochemical (soil sample) surveys are proposed for the greater Mogu area to define initial drill targets and to seek to extend the size of the known gold system.

No drilling has been completed to date by Orbis in the Mogu Prospect area.
