Trade Symbol: TSX: TNX AMEX: TRE VANCOUVER, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tanzanian Royalty is pleased to announce that all assay results have been received from the Phase 5 drilling program on its Kigosi Gold Project. The Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program was completed in December 2007 and consisted of 64 holes aggregating 3,659 metres, bringing the total drilled at Kigosi to 16,958 metres in 378 holes. According to Tanzanian Royalty President, John Deane, "The objective of this fifth phase of drilling was to test the strike continuity of the Luhwaika reef system to the southeast on two 200 metres-spaced lines, and to drill infill holes down-dip and along strike of mineralization identified in previous drilling in the northwest area." Drilling was conducted along nine control lines with a central baseline having a strike length of 2.8 kilometres. Hole spacing was 30 metres, he noted. The two shear zones hosting the high grade shoots have now been traced along a strike length of 2.2 kilometres. Both structures are still open towards the northwest and southeast. The gold bearing shoots within these shear zones have strike lengths ranging from 100 to 1,300 metres and most of them appear to be closing off to the northwest.
