Thor Explorations Confirms Expanded Gold Footprint at Senegal's Douta Project
Thor Explorations has announced new drilling results from its 2026 program at the Douta Project in Senegal, revealing an expanded gold footprint. The project, which includes the Douta, Douta West, and Bousankhoba licenses, has shown significant findings from various deposits. The Douta Gold Project comprises the Makosa gold deposits and the Baraka 3 resource, totaling approximately 1.97 million ounces of gold. This includes an indicated resource of 50.6 million tonnes at a grade of one gram per tonne gold, amounting to 1.7 million ounces, and an inferred resource totaling 270,000 ounces. Current reserves stand at 1.2 million ounces of gold from 36.6 million tonnes at a grade of 1 gram per tonne gold. The drilling results indicate new oxide resources, with significant intersections reported from various drill holes. The project’s geology suggests a potential extension of gold mineralization, and further drilling is planned to explore these extensions.
