According to the company, a geophysical program completed over the Kizilcukur vein system demonstrates continuity of potentially mineralised structures at depth and along strike of areas previously drill tested.

Ariana has defined high priority drill targets on high resistivity anomalies including a probable connecting structure at depth between the two highest-grade areas of the Kizilcukur prospect.

A drilling program for the prospect is being planned to gain a further understanding of the 2km of mineralised quartz veins containing high-grade gold and silver, the company said.

Previous surface sampling results include 152g/t gold and 1,320g/t silver and several high-grade drill intercepts underpin the prospectivity of the property.
