en.Wedoany.com Reported - Dalaroo Metals (ASX:DAL) has identified a gold soil anomaly zone extending 4.3 kilometers along strike at the Gold Ridge prospect within the Bondoukou project in Côte d'Ivoire, through a first-pass soil geochemistry program.

Soil gold peak values from results received so far reach 2,188 ppb (i.e., 2.19 g/t), with assay results for a further 4.7 kilometers of strike yet to be announced. The company has obtained 454 samples with gold grades above 20 ppb, of which 27 samples exceed 200 ppb. Multiple continuous soil anomaly zones define a robust mineralized corridor, and pending results are expected to further expand the project's coverage.

The gold anomaly zone aligns with a geophysical corridor interpreted to be 9 kilometers long within the project area, located on a fold limb structure identified during recent geological mapping. Dalaroo reports a "strong correlation" between soil anomalies, artisanal mining, quartz veins, and favorable lithological contacts.

The company plans to conduct 5,000 meters of auger drilling to test the validity and enrichment of the anomaly zone.

CEO John Morgan stated that these results are "a significant milestone for Dalaroo and a strong validation" of the company's exploration model. Morgan said, "Defining a coherent 4.3km gold anomaly zone, linked to a 9km structural corridor, widespread artisanal mining, and favorable geology, greatly enhances our confidence in the potential scale of the system." These results provide a clear pathway for drilling, with the upcoming auger drilling program specifically designed to test the bedrock source of the anomalies and rapidly advance the highest-priority targets in preparation for the first reverse circulation (RC) drilling. "With multiple datasets converging on the same corridor, we believe Gold Ridge is emerging as a highly attractive gold exploration opportunity within the richly endowed Birimian greenstone belt of Côte d'Ivoire."

Dalaroo Metals is an exploration company focused on discovering and developing gold and critical minerals projects in Côte d'Ivoire, Greenland, and Australia.
