a
to

new explorattion Permit fo
or its Madouggou Project, in Burkina

F
West A
Africa (Figure

Similar

ormation to tthose seen on
o the Mado
ougou Permitt have been indentified
on
o the Mado
ougou 2 Pe
ermit during preliminary reconnaissa
ance mappin
ng. Regionaal data and first pass
reconnaissan
r

g show the Permit
P
to be underlain by
y a mixture of
o Birimian G
Greenstones (volcanics
and
a sedimen
nts) and gran
nitoids. Rece
ent sedimentts cover the western extrremities of thhe Permit. Recent
R
and
historical
h
sco
out drilling on

Two
T
large arrtisanal minin
ng fields are located on Madougou 2 Permit. Mineralisation at these site
es appears
to be associiated with quartz veining
g and shearring on the contacts be
etween greennstone sedim
ments and
volcanics
v
with intrusive bodies.

The
T new Perrmit has had very limited modern dayy exploration
n. In the 199
90’s Channell Resources conducted
some
s
region
nal soil geocchemistry an
nd drilled tw
wo scout RC
C holes over the southeern half of the Permit
intersecting 4
4m at 1.9g/t gold and 2m
m at 4.9g/t g
gold adjacen
nt to the one of the preseent day artisa
anal mining
sites.
s
Carbine
C
inten
nds to start exploration on
o this Perm
mit during Oc
ctober 2011 after the weet season is over. The
exploration
e
p
programs willl include ma
apping and g

resolutio
on aeromagn

The

ment include limited up-fro
ont paymentts with furthe
er staged payyments over 3 years to
allow
a
Carbine Resourcess to acquire 100% of th

ugou Permit is situated on highly prospective
p
Birimian
B
Greenstone and
d contains ex
xtensive con

greenstones annd granitoids
s. Much of
the mineralissation in this region is as
ssociated witth shearing and quartz veining
v
alongg these conttacts. Two
la
arge artisana
al fields are currently
c
being mined on
n the Permit and
a further enforce

the pprospectivity of our new
