Kilo Goldmines Ltd. provided an update on its exploration program on its Imbo Licence (PE9691) within the Ngayu greenstone belt in the northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The current 63 hole (8,900 m) program is designed to test coincident gold-in-soil geochemical and geophysical anomalies on the following three targets, located within 4 km of the Company's Adumbi prospect: Adumbi South Target (20 drill holes totaling 3,100 m, on 7 traverses at a spacing of 160 m along strike). Adumbi West Target (26 drill holes totaling 3,400 m, on 10 traverses at a spacing of 160 m along strike). Kitenge Extension Target (17 drill holes totaling 2,400 m, on 7 traverses at a spacing of 320 m along strike). Drilling commenced on October 31, 2016 with two diamond drilling rigs (one track-mounted and one man-portable) and continued until the planned year-end suspension of field work on December 9, 2016. During the recess period, two additional track-mounted rigs were mobilized to site, and the program recommenced on January 11, 2107 using the three track-mounted machines. To date, 5 drill holes totaling 814 m have been completed at Adumbi South (drill traverses ASL5 and ASL4), and 2 holes totaling 299 m have been drilled at Kitenge Extension (drill traverse KPL4). A third hole is in progress at Kitenge at a depth of 98 m (Drill traverse KPL2). At Adumbi South, the sequence drilled on drill traverse ASL5 consists mainly of inter layered quartz-carbonate schist and chlorite schist, with localized bands of magnetite-rich chlorite schist. Hydrothermal alteration is associated with a 3.35 m-wide shear zone, and comprises foliation parallel quartz veins with disseminated pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and arsenopyrite; assay results for this zone returned geochemically anomalous Au values up to 0.24 g/t. Drilling is now in progress on traverse ASL4, where the magnetic response of the magnetite-bearing schists is weaker, possibly due to more extensive hydrothermal activity. Following completion of the first traverse at Kitenge Extension, one rig has will now commence drilling at Adumbi West on traverse AWL2, and the program will continue with one rig operating on each target.
