Reported that recent prospecting, trenching and soil geochemistry has resulted in the discovery of a new area of gold mineralization known as the Majiri Bomba prospect. Results have defined a strong soil anomaly at Majili Bomba, over 1.3km strike with a peak value of 765ppb Au (0.77g/t Au). Mapping at the Majili workings on the eastern extent of the anomaly, has defined a 30 degree south dipping shear zone which contains sheeted quartz veining, the subject of bedrock and significant alluvial artisanal workings.
