B2Gold Corp. (BTO) has confirmed the continuity of the Mamba Main Zone from the Anaconda Area.

The Anaconda Area comprises the Menankoto and Bantako North permits, part of the Fekola complex, the Bakolobi permit, and the Dandoko permit.

Results from the Mamba Main Zone consistently found mineralization and confirmed the continuity of the high-grade sulphide mineralization of the targeted shoot to over 700 metres down plunge.

The company believes there is now potential for Fekola-style bodies of sulphide mineralization, which remain open at depth.

The nearby Cobra Zone has also demonstrated prospective results and is currently being drilled for an extension. All of these results will go towards increasing the updated 2022 Anaconda Area Mineral Resource estimate.

For the remainder of this year, B2Gold will focus on follow-up drilling to extend the known sulphide mineralization at the Anaconda Area, including the Mamba, Cobra and Adder zones, and several other targets below the saprolite mineralization, with approximately 45,000 metres to be completed overall.

B2Gold Corp. (BTO) is down 3.12 per cent and is trading at $4.35 per share as of 3:04 p.m. ET.
