Nexus Gold - First is Nianguoela, Next is Bouboulou Bring on the drilling find that gold !
Two properties in a hot mining country in Africa with good gold results to date.
The chances are greater in favor of the company now to deliver the gold and a new deposit (s)
This company is NOT a one trick pony !

About the Bouboulou Gold Concession The Bouboulou exploration permit covers an area of 38.8 -sq km approximately 75 kilometres north-west of the capital Ouagadougou and is accessible by paved road. The Bouboulou permit is located on the Boromo-Goren greenstone belt and is bisected by the Sabce shear zone.
This regional north-east trending structure hosts numerous artisanal workings along its 120- kilometre length and hosts the Bissa Hills deposit presently being mined by Norgold. Three 5km anomalous gold trends exist on the property along with numerous artisanal zones (orpaillages).
Gold mineralization was first identified at Bouboulou by Boliden in 1997 where a regional Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling program outlined a broad north-east trending gold anomaly measuring 13km by 2km over what is now the Bouboulou permit. The concession was then explored by Riverstone Resources and Roxgold Inc.
Highlights of these surface exploration programs include surface rock sampling and trenching that returned gold grades from 1.09 to 19.16 g/t. Four zones of gold mineralization have been identified on the property, termed Koala, Rawema, Bouboulou 2 and Pelgtanga. Roxgold later completed reverse circulation (RC) and diamond drilling (DD) to test the four mineralized zones.

Bouboulou Trend Analysis The Company has compiled historical data including airborne geophysics, Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling, geochemical sampling, reverse circulation drilling, diamond drilling and the location of orpaillages (zones of artisanal gold mining). The compiled data reviewed consists of over 7000 assays collected between 2011 and 2012.
This data displays three strong coincidental geochemical and geophysical anomalous gold trends. These trends extend from the four drill-identified mineralized zones, namely Rawema, Pelgtanga, Bouboulou 2 and Koala. Each of the three trends extends in length for 5000 meters (5KM). They are identified by numerous orpaillages and geochemical samples of greater than 1 gram per tonne gold.
All three of the Bouboulou trends identified are defined by similar coincidental anomalies. Each trend has substantial artisanal workings either directly on them or along the trend.
