Angkor Resources Corp’s Gold-in-Soil Tests Show Positive Result

Canadian firm Angkor Resources Corp (ANK)’s recent test has shown a positive result of gold-in-soil anomalies in the Andong Meas licensed area of Cambodia. The firm also cited that it has already started the surface mapping progress for the 2021 work program.

According to the firm, the positive result is another big step demonstrating that the Andong Meas zone is rich in potential gold prospects.

“Following on the recently announced Wild Boar surface results that showed some spectacular numbers, we are keen to further explore this prospect which has several subparallel epithermal gold mineralised veins,” said VP of Exploration Dennis Ouellette.

“I believe there is exceptional potential across the Andong Meas license given the long history of artisanal mining and visible gold found in pan concentrates that ANK’s team has seen in the creek structures surrounding these two targets,” he added.

Andong Meas, which was acquired by Angkor Resources in 2012, has shown at least eight distinct prospective gold prospects within its 188 square kilometres.
The company in August also claimed that there are high-grade gold samples (up to 70.7 g/t Au) from the Andong Meas claim.
