Alecto doubles potential gold resource estimate - speculative buy

Africa-focused AIM dog Alecto Minerals (ALO) says new estimates of resources at its Kerboule gold project in Burkina Faso could add 230,758 oz. to the company’s existing inferred resource estimate of 247,000 oz. at Kossanto in East Mali for a combined low-grade resource of 477,748 oz. The new estimates, by independent consultant Wardell Armstrong, but not yet fully compliant with the formal Joint Ore Reserve Committee (JORC) industry code, suggest Kerboule’s gold occurs at 1.16 grammes of gold per tonne of ore, compared with Kossanto’s 1.14 grammes a tonne. However Alecto notes that Kerboule’s mineralisation starts at the surface, with 70% inside the relatively accessible oxide and transitional layers.
