Serengeti Resources Inc.: Kwanika Drill Program Shows Copper-Gold System Open at North End of Central Zone
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- Serengeti Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: SIR)(FRANKFURT: 34S) reports the results of a drill program conducted on the Kwanika property located in the Quesnel Trough of north-central British Columbia. Three holes were drilled at the north end of the Central Zone on the property confirm that the copper-gold system remains open to the north and to depth.
A total of 1472m were drilled on the Kwanika property between late August and early September 2012. Three of the holes, K-174 to 176 were drilled testing 450 meters of strike length. All three encountered mineralization with the best intercept grading 0.13% Cu, 0.15 g/t Au over 159.7m in drill hole K-175 with several narrower intervals of better grade mineralization (see following table). Two of the holes K-175, 176 bottomed in mineralization indicating that the system remains open to depth. Relogging of a number of prior drill holes from the northern part of the Kwanika property also indicates that this portion of the mineralized system flanks a large, highly altered, but barren breccia complex. This new geological concept will aid in future drill hole targeting.
One regional hole, KS-07 testing a strong IP and magnetic anomaly, 15 kilometers south of the deposit area, encountered pyritic sediments and ultramafic sills explaining the geophysical response but did not encounter significant mineralization.

Serengeti also reports that it has received a cash refund of $579,000 from the BC Government's METC program in partial reimbursement of exploration expenditures incurred in the province in 2010. This amount is included in the working capital position indicated below.
