Nusantara Resources Limited announced the receipt of assay results from the first 7 holes of the 12 hole resource definition drilling program recently completed at the satellite Salu Bulo gold deposit within its 100% owned Awak Mas Gold Project located in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The satellite Salu Bulo gold deposit is located 1.8 km to the southeast of the main Awak Mas deposit and hosts a number of mineralised quartz vein breccia structures referred to as the Biwa, Bandoli and Lelating trends. The Phase 1 Salu Bulo drilling program of 12 diamond drill holes for 1,337.5 m was successfully completed in late December 2017 with assay results from 7 of these 12 holes received to date. Initial indications are that the significant sub vertical quartz vein, stock work and breccia hosted, high grade gold mineralisation corresponds well with the modelled domains. Additionally, several broad intersections of lower grade gold mineralisation associated with flatlying shears have been defined which will allow for future inclusion of these larger volume domains into an updated Mineral Resource model. Significant intersections from the first seven holes within the Salu Bulo deposit include SBD134; 21.0 m at 1.5 g/t Au from 0.0 m, including 3.0 m at 6.0 g/t Au from 18.0 m, 13.8 m at 1.3 g/t Au from 37.0 m, including 1 m at 10.0 g/t Au from 48.8 m; and 19.1 m at 2.5 g/t Au from 56.9 m, including 5.1 m at 6.4 g/t Au from 56.9 m. SBD136; 13.0 m at 1.9 g/t Au from 0.0 m, including 2.0 m at 5.5 g/t Au from 9.0 m. SBD138; 23.2 m at 2.8 g/t Au from 0.0 m, including 9.5 m at 4.1 g/t Au from 2.0 m; and SBD139M; 28.6 m at 0.9 g/t Au from 14 m, including 4 m at 4.3 g/t Au from 29.0 m; and 30.1 m at 2.8 g/t Au from 53.4 m, including a high grade interval of 8.0 m at 7.4 g/t Au from 69.5 m. The drill hole results are expected to increase size and confidence of current Inferred and Indicated Resource of 1.4 Mt at 2.58 g/t Au. An updated Salu Bulo deposit Mineral Resource estimate incorporating the results from the full 12 hole drilling program is being prepared and will be reported in early February 2018.
