West African Resources (ASX:WAF) intersected high-grade gold mineralization during recent diamond drilling at the M5 deposit of its Sanbrado Gold Operations in Burkina Faso, according to a Tuesday Australian bourse filing.
The results were of up to 27 meters at 6.7 grams per tonne (g/t) gold from diamond drilling below the M5 South reserve and 29 meters at 16.4 g/t gold from infill diamond drilling, the filing added.
The company said the results confirm potential for significant ore reserve growth, with drilling to continue throughout 2026 and resource conversion drilling progressing on schedule, targeting ore reserve growth.
