Empire's first resource estimate for Yuinmery project
11:33, Wednesday, 18 March 2009
A JORC-compliant resource of 1.07m tonnes grading 1.82pc copper and
0.78pc gold has been announced by Empire Resources Ltd (ASX:ERL) for its
Yuinmery project, south of Sandstone in Western Australia.
The estimate is the first for Empire's wholly-owned Yuinmery
copper-gold project and follows a round of drilling by the company on
the project's Just Desserts prospect last year and at shallow depths
between 50m and 250m.
Managing director Mr David Sargeant said the potential to
readily upgrade the resource was significant because the mineralisation
remained open at depth and along strike, and the compliant resource was
restricted to sulphide and transitional mineralisation types.
The company is investigating toll treatment development options for the prospect.
