Volta extends Kiaka Gold Project mineralization
2 December 2011: Volta Resources Inc. announces the drill results from 4 holes from Phase 3 of the on-going program at its Kiaka Gold Project in Burkina Faso. Phase 3 comprises approximately 50,000m of drilling being undertaken to extend resources in the Central Area, to follow up positive results in the South Area, to test several more ground geophysical targets and undertake scout drilling on regional targets on the Kiaka property.
Results have been received to date for 4 holes, located on 2 sections, respectively 5750N and 5800N. The 4 holes, comprising a total of 2,104.5m, confirm the continuity of wide mineralization, typical of the Kiaka Main Zone (KMZ) deposit. Significantly, the drilling confirms that the well mineralized, and wide, KMZ zone persists beneath a shallow southeasterly dipping fault down to a vertical depth exceeding 400m. These holes should also result in the conversion of a significant portion of the current Inferred Resources to the Indicated Category in this area. The mineralization remains open towards the northeast and is currently being tested by the on-going drilling program.
