Azumah Resources Ltd. announced that it has delivered on two key objectives by increasing global Mineral Resources at its wholly owned Wa Gold Project in northwest Ghana by 32% to 1.36 million ounces Measured and Indicated and 0.85 million ounces Inferred. Azumah also substantially increased Mineral Resources at its Julie deposit by 84% to 0.59 million ounces Measured and Indicated and 0.46 million ounces Inferred. The Julie Mineral Resource at Wa East is especially pleasing because its shallow-dipping mineralisation has been extended to 150m below surface with the thickest lodes showing good continuity and grade down-dip to that depth. The mineralisation remains open at depth and there is more delineation drilling to be undertaken towards the western flanks of the 6km east-west striking Julie structure. The improved Julie Mineral Resource, combined with several other targets still at an early stage of evaluation at Wa East, implies that the area will play an increasingly important role in Azumah's development ambitions. A 33% increase in material classified as Measured and Indicated reflects Azumah's focus on better defining mineralisation that has a higher likelihood of being converted into Mineral Reserves. Importantly, some 40,000oz of mineralisation captured within or lying adjacent to optimised pit outlines, but
excluded from Mineral Reserves due to its previous classification as Inferred material, is now likely to be brought in to Mineral Reserves - currently 430,000oz gold.
