"In the meantime work is continuing so as not to delay the project schedule. A
drilling programme utilising three rigs is currently under way at Asacha. The
geological environment is considered favourable for significantly increasing the
resources at Asacha through drilling. Since July 2004, 10,773 metres have been
drilled, principally aimed at increasing resources in the main zone and looking
for satellite occurrences. No assay results are yet to hand, however vein
intersections have been made that are likely, on receipt of assays, to add
resources."
