Angkor Reports 55.4 g/t Gold from Wild Boar Sampling

TORONTO, May 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK and OTC: ANKOF) (“Angkor” or “the Company”) CEO Stephen Burega is pleased to report on the recently completed mapping and sampling program on its 100% owned Andong Meas property.

Highlights

• Multiple grab samples with gold from 3.08 to 55.4 g/t grams of gold per tonne;
• Significant gold target has been identified from samples collected over a north to south distance of more than 600 metres; and
• Evidence of multiple mineralized epithermal quartz veins and skarn type alteration across the license including the Wild Boar and Wild Monkey prospects.

“This program was designed to re-sample the higher grade showings around the Wild Boar prospect and to map and resample the quartz vein material found in the Canada Wall copper porphyry target,” stated Stephen Burega. “The northern most quartz vein float samples were collected over a north to south distance of more than 600 metres representing a new and significant gold target for the Company.”

The mineralization from the area is polymetallic veins with Au, Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn with anomalous values of As, Bi, Mo, Sb, and Te.

“The float grab samples collected to date suggest that the occurrence is of the intrusive hosted mesothermal gold vein type of deposit”, state Dennis Ouellette, ANK’s VP of Exploration. “Mesco Gold’s Phum Syarung gold mine which is currently in development is an example of this type of deposit. The Mesco mine is located approximately 18 kilometres south of the Wild Boar prospect.”
