Drill hole ZBR See CAV. 002, in the Bissa Southwest target area located approximately 800 meters southwest of the Bissa Hill project intersected 6.13 g/t gold over 34 meters.This included a higher grade section of 23.89 g/t gold over 5 meters.

In addition, trenching in the Liliga area, located approximately 10 kilometers southeast of Bissa Hill and in a similar geological setting has returned several significant gold intervals including 4.06 g/t over 31 meters and 13.04 g/t gold over 11 meters.

Shear A straining action wherein applied forces produce a sliding or skewing type of deformation. Zone The Sabce Shear Zone is a thirty kilometer kilometer one thousand (103) meters; 3280.83 feet; five-eighths of a mile; abbreviated km. deformation deformation /de·for·ma·tion/ (de?for-ma´shun) 1. in dysmorphology, a type of structural defect characterized by the abnormal form or position of a body part, caused by a nondisruptive mechanical force. 2. zone which is defined by the Bissa Hill deposit at the northeast end and the Guibare gold deposit at the southwest end.

RC hole ZBR-002, which returned the intersections noted above, was part of a drilling program consisting of 646 meters of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling, and 7,026 meters of Rotary Rotary can refer to:

A second RC Hole,ZBR-003, was also completed in this most recent program and was collared 40 meters east of the holes DDH ZK04-001 and DDH ZK04-002 referred to above. This hole returned several intercepts of gold mineralization; 2.23 g/t gold over 2 meters, 3.72 g/t gold over 6 meters, 1.82 g/t gold over 3 meters, 3.89 g/t gold over 4 meters, 1.28 g/t gold over 8 meters and 2.95 g/t gold over 5 meters. In addition, a 2 km long NW-SE trending line of RAB holes was drilled on grid line 8980E, 120 meters west of hole ZBR-003 described above. This line of RAB holes in several locations intersected several significant grade intercepts including 6.81 g/t over 4 meters, 3.9 g/t over 12 meters, 2.57 g/t over 28 meters and 2.08 over 28 meters as shown in Table 1 below.

It should be noted that within some of the wider intercepts there are several two meter intervals with significantly higher grade material. These RAB results are significant and have identified an area of mineralization in the Bissa Southwest area that will be followed up with RC drilling. Approximately 4 kilometers further to the southwest at Gonglou, a 600 meter long RAB drill fence setup See BIOS setup and install program. on grid line 5245E, cut a number of gold intercepts including one grading 1.43 g/t over 14 meters in RAB hole ZBB-027 from 10 meters to 24 meters along the hole.

The Jilbey program to date at Bissa has identified an indicated resource of 1,373,000 tonnes at 3.33 g/t Au to a depth of approximately 75 meters at Bissa Hill, has demonstrated the presence of similar style and grade mineralization 800 meters further along strike at Bissa Southwest, and has shown the mineralized min·er·al·ize v. min·er·al·ized, min·er·al·iz·ing, min·er·al·iz·es v.tr. 1.

Liliga Prospect A trenching program (235 meters) in one trench trench: see ocean. was completed at the Liliga area located approximately 10 kilometers southeast of the Bissa Hill deposit in the Liliga Shear Zone. Samples from Trench #818N returned significant gold intersects including 4.06 g/t over 31.8 meters and 13.04 g/t over 11.5 meters as shown in Table 2 below.

A second drilling program has commenced and will test the extensions of the mineralization in the Bissa Southwest area as well as the lateral and depth extent of the mineralization at the Liliga prospect. Gregory Isenor, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Jilbey states, "we are extremely encouraged by the extent, continuity and grade of the mineralization found to date within the Sabce Shear Zone and we feel the potential exists to outline significant resources in this six kilometer section of the Sabce Shear Zone. Developments at the new Liliga prospect demonstrate the opportunity for further discoveries on other structures within the immediate area. We are looking forward to an active drilling campaign in the upcoming months." Sampling of the RC drilling is completed over one-metre intervals. Approximately 20 kilograms of cuttings are recovered for each interval. The RC chips are logged and bagged at the drill site. From each original sample, a sub-sample of 2 kg is produced, using a single-stage Jones riffle splitter and repeated passes with the final sub-sample being systematically obtained from the right side of the splitter. Samples obtained are placed in individual plastic bags. All sampling tools are cleaned between samples. The RC rejects are stored at Jilbey's guarded camp. Preparation and gold analysis of the drilling samples are performed at Abilab West Africa S.A.R.L. in Bamako, Mali.Samples are analyzed an·a·lyze tr.v. an·a·lyzed, an·a·lyz·ing, an·a·lyz·es 1.
