Angkor Resources Corp.
 

GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA (February 20, 2025) – TheNewswire – ANGKOR RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV: ANK) (“ANGKOR”)

commenced diamond drilling with our partners B.S.N. Ratanak Sambath Co. Ltd. on the Wild Boar prospect of the Andong Meas tenement in Ratanakiri Province.  The drill program initially will be three 200-meter holes and one 100-meter hole.

 

Drill locations were selected to test the recent magnetics completed and high-grade surface samples found across the anomaly plus the trenching program of 2023. The prospect had significant results from float samples ranging up to 70 grams per tonne of gold across an area roughly one kilometre from north to south and 500 metres wide.   (see map on following page)

 

Technical teams brought the drilling rig into the prospect last week and the logistics team completed meetings with the surrounding landowners to explain the next steps and arrange compensation for any crop damage from the drilling activities.  

 

Drilling on the Wild Boar prospect is expected to take several weeks to complete.  The license has several gold prospects and several copper/gold porphyry systems including Canada Wall, South Creek, and Gossan Hills which are targeted for drilling following Wild Boar.

 

The Company also announces that it has granted an aggregate of 1,700,000 options ("Options") to consultants of the Company’s energy subsidiary, EnerCam Exploration Ltd. with such Options being exercisable at an exercise price of Cdn $0.10 per common share for a period of twelve months ending February 22, 2026.

 

The options are granted under the terms and conditions of the Company’s stock option plan. The contractors are working on the Cambodian Block VIII onshore project and Canadian opportunities that may arise from time to time.
