Kentor Gold (ASX: KGL) from just channel sampling of outcropping granite has intersected some high grade gold and copper at the Bekbulaktor gold prospect, which is located in the Kyrgyz Republic.
The highlight was 12 metres at 14.07 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 1.83% copper at the western zone, which now rounds out the exploration in the area for 2011.
Results from the central zone include 37 metres at 2.65g/t gold, with the eastern zone 10 metres at 2.53g/t gold and the northern zone 11.5 metres at 2.83g/t gold and 0.13% copper.
The company is now planning a 2012 drilling program for the prospect, after the 2011 program was focused on providing an understanding of the potential of a large zone of mineralised granite that was studied in the 2009 and 2010 field seasons.
Simon Milroy, managing director, commented on the news and said, "The results this year - the extent of the prospect and the high grade of the samples - further increase our expectations of the mining potential at Bekbulaktor."
Kentor is aiming high at the prospect, with the drilling program targeting a gold and copper resource.
