ANGKOR RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV: ANK) has announced further analysis, assays, and conclusions on the drill core from the Andong Bor license in Oddar Meanchey, Cambodia. The company's VP Exploration, Dennis Ouellette, along with associate geologists, reviewed historical drill core and the most recent 2025 holes 009 and 010. The two new holes, particularly ABDDH25-009 which was substantially deeper, revealed sections from roughly 245 metres to 316 metres containing abundant pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization.
Previously, in late 2022, analysis was based only on core drilled by a different company, as reported in the press release ANGKOR CONFIRMS 108 METRES OF 0.53% COPPER EQUIVALENT AT ANDONG BOR, CAMBODIA. The 2025 drill core from both holes is being logged in detail and cut for sampling.
Further conclusions indicate that the structural relationship between intrusive and host sedimentary rock was not revealed in previous drilling (ADBDH16-005 to -008) due to faulted contacts or poor core recovery. Mr. Ouellette summarized findings: "The best copper mineralization in Andong Bor diamond drill core is hosted by the sedimentary rocks. The diorite feldspar porphyry intrusive rocks can host low grade copper porphyry-style mineralization, such as 'B' and 'D' style veins and disseminations. However, in proximity to the highly reactive wallrock, the assay values increase dramatically."
He added that the contacts between sedimentary and intrusive rocks are very steep, from 70 to 80 degrees. Mineralization within the sediments is both disseminated and along fractures parallel to these contacts, implying significant ground preparation prior to mineralization. "Knowing this impacts the design of our continuation of the drill program in a manner which we expect will result in both shallower and increased mineralized intercepts," Ouellette said.
Assays will be forwarded to ALS when all core cutting is completed, and plans for continuation of drilling extend into 2026. Dennis Ouellette, B.Sc., P.Geo., is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure.
