Dacian Gold Limited (ASX:DCN) High Impact Drilling Program Commences at Westralia

Dacian Gold Ltd ("Dacian" or "the Company") (ASX:DCN) is pleased to announce that it has commenced its high impact drilling program infilling several high grade intersections located up to 1,200m north of the 850,000 ounce Mineral Resource at Westralia.

As previously announced to the market (see ASX releases dated 24 February 2015 and 15 October 2014), Dacian drill-tested an area north of Westralia that had not previously been explored. The Company was testing a geological concept that the Westralia mineralised gold system was significantly larger than previously considered. Five wide spaced intersections, listed below in Table 1 and shown diagrammatically in Figure 1, confirmed excellent grade and widths of mineralised Banded Iron Formation (BIF) was present immediately along strike of the 850,000 ounce Westralia deposit.
