March 18, 2008
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 18, 2008) - Keegan Resources Inc.

The goal of this drill program will be to conduct an initial drill test of the NW and Bia targets. The NW target is currently 5.5km long and contains several zones of greater than 50 ppb gold in soil samples and up to 4911 ppb gold in augur samples. Keegan will also be testing the coincident aeromagnetic, IP resistivity, and augur anomalies at the Bia anomaly which represent a major fault structure measuring over 15km in strike length. The Asumura project currently hosts mineralized structures now measuring in excess of 40km in strike and it is likely that multiple programs will be required in order to properly test the full extent of the currently outlined area's of interest.
