What are ASX investors considering?
Predictive Discovery shares are soaring after the company announced another round of "impressive gold hits".
The results come from continuing resource drilling at its Bankan Gold Project, located in Guinea.
The All Ords gold share reported that it had completed eight new infill and resource expansion diamond drill holes totalling 4,064 metres of the NE Bankan Gold Deposit.
Among the top results, one diamond drill hole returned 43 metres at 4.88 grams of gold per tonne from 304 metres, including 20m at 7.54g/t Au from 326 metres, including 4m at 16.53g/t Au from 342 metres.
Predictive Discovery also reported on the results of 73 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes, with one returning 12m at 1.08/t Au from 7 metres.
Commenting on the drill results sending the All Ords gold share rocketing today, Predictive Discovery managing director Andrew Pardey said:
Predictive's next phase of drilling, which is focused on further defining the quality and extending the fast-growth resource of the NE Bankan gold deposit, continues to prove up the significance of what is the largest gold discovery in West Africa for over a decade.
As we continue to drill out our assets and move towards the development phase of the project, we are also highly encouraged by the consistency and quality of the resource through our initial grade control drilling at NE Bankan.
Bankan currently has an inferred Resource of 79.5 million tonnes at 1.63g/t Au for 4.2 million ounces of gold.
The gold miner reported it has ten rigs continuing Resource expansion and infill drilling at NE Bankan, Bankan Creek and near-mine exploration programs.
