Kilo Goldmines Ltd.: Primary Targets Defined on Joint Venture Ground With Randgold

22/07/2013 2:30pm

Marketwired Canada


Kilo Goldmines Ltd. ("Kilo" or "KGL" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:KGL)
(FRANKFURT:02K) Kilo Goldmines Ltd ("Kilo or KGL") is pleased to provide the
following update on its joint venture with Randgold Resources Limited
("Randgold"). 




--  Isiro greenstone belt: 8 targets 
--  Ngayu greenstone belt: 6 targets 
--  Geological features similar to those found at the 20 Moz Kibali gold
    mine identified 
--  Located historical workings that are possibly related to colonial-era
    mining (unconfirmed) 
--  Title transfer from a Rio Tinto-managed company to the Randgold / Kilo
    Goldmines joint venture company completed 



Generative geologists from Randgold have now completed their initial
reconnaissance and review of existing data on the extensive permit area covering
the joint venture project. The joint venture area hosts various structurally
complex features formed from tectonic forces similar to those at the Kibali
mine, particularly the presence of cylindrical folds. Kibali is a 20 Moz gold
mine in the northeast Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") operated by
Randgold which is scheduled to have its first gold pour in late 2013 (see Figure
1 below for relative location). 


Based on information gathered to date by Randgold, 14 primary exploration
targets have been identified on the Isiro (8 targets) and Ngayu (6 targets)
greenstone belts (see Figures 2 and 3 below). These targets are only preliminary
and do not preclude additional targets being identified from further
exploration. The 14 aforementioned targets will initially be covered by soil
sampling, and will be advanced dependent on results. Subsequent to the
evaluation of these primary targets, soil sampling will be extended to cover the
entire 2000 km2 joint venture area. 


A number of workings have also been found in the joint venture area which may
date from colonial era industrial mining, although no data has been obtained to
substantiate this view to date. 


KGL is also pleased to announce that the transfer of the titles covering the
joint venture area from the company managed by Rio Tinto Plc to the
Randgold/Kilo Goldmines joint venture company was completed on 12 July 2013. As
a result of this transfer, Randgold teams will now further advance ground
exploration work. 


KGL and Randgold have also restructured their joint venture to allow for certain
operational efficiencies. In order to facilitate investment into the JV and
accounting for such investment, Randgold has been assigned 51% of the joint
venture company, which will be entirely managed by Randgold and financed by it
through a pre-feasibility study (PFS), with Kilo Goldmines representation on the
board and on the joint venture exploration committee. Upon completion of the
PFS, KGL can participate in its pro rata share of funding or Randgold will
increase its participation to 65% by completing a Feasibility Study. Areas which
may be deemed of no interest to Randgold will be returned to KGL. KGL continues
to retain the rights to all minerals other than gold and silver within the
entire joint venture area.


Alex van Hoeken, President and CEO of KGL stated: "Our partner Randgold has
provided exceptionally skilled personnel to the joint venture and has done an
outstanding job in delineating the initial targets. In particular we are very
pleased by the excellent cooperation between our companies, and we are highly
encouraged that geological features similar to Kibali have been discovered."
