Oklo Resources Ltd’s (ASX:OKU) (FRA:JYA) shallow reconnaissance aircore (AC) drilling of regional targets has identified two further growth opportunities in close proximity to Seko, within its flagship Dandoko Gold Project in west Mali.

Oklo Resources managing director Simon Taylor said: “The latest results from shallow reconnaissance AC drilling on targets along the 15 kilometres Dandoko gold corridor continue to confirm the potential for further growth opportunities in close proximity to Seko.

“These new results complement our pipeline of maturing satellite opportunities, which will be further assessed in the near-term as part of our resource expansion drilling program.”
