Ariana Resources (ASX:AA2) has reported ‘positive’ reverse circulation drilling results at its Dokwe Gold Project in Zimbabwe.
Exploration identified a northeast to southwest trending shear‑hosted gold system, which has “strong structural control, intense foliation with lesser localised quartz veins”.
The company revealed such gold mineralisation can indicate silicification and pyrite mineralisation within “strongly deformed” volcanic and volcaniclastic units.
“It is particularly encouraging that we can report several high‑grade intersections, including four metres at 17 grams per tonne [of] gold, which highlight the strength and continuity of the mineralised shear zone,” Managing Director Kerim Sener says.
The company plans to conduct its next phase of diamond drilling before the end of March 2026. The work aims to confirm structural interpretation, test further system extensions, and support future resource growth.
Ariana Resources is an exploration and development company, focused on the development of Dokwe, its one million ounce gold development project in Zimbabwe.
