Not sure if the punters are aware of the 2 nearology plays on this one?,
1. near DeGreys world class Hemi gold deposit and
2. near Mineral Resources’ Tier-1 Wodgina Lithium deposit
ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
28 July 2021
Pilbara exploration accelerates with vast number of assays expected in coming weeks
Assays for +10,000m of RC and 5,000m of AC drilling now in the laboratory
Highlights
• Initial phase of AC (air-core) drilling completed at the Kangan Project, located 20km south of the world-class 6.8Moz Hemi deposit.
• The 5,454m/133-hole program tested a sizeable anomalous gold target adjacent to major structures identified from aeromagnetic and soil geochemistry data.
• The drilling intersected various intrusive lithologies, including mafic intrusions and a significant amount of pegmatites.
Assays are expected in 6-7 weeks.
• First assay results received from the ongoing drilling program at the 873,500oz Mt York Gold Project, with best initial intercepts from the Old Faithful prospect including:
• 28m @ 1.43g/t Au from 72m in MYRC156, including:
➢ 4m @ 2.37g/t Au from 84m
• Airborne magnetic and radiometric survey completed at the Wodgina Project, located immediately adjacent to Mineral Resources’ Tier-1 Wodgina Lithium deposit (Ore Reserve of 151.9Mt grading 1.17% Li2O) to generate exploration targets.
• Ultrafine+ soil sampling program, part of the CSIRO research initiative, also completed at Wodgina, with 1,517 samples submitted for assay.
• Fixed-loop transient electro-magnetic (FLTEM) survey completed at the Tierra prospect, part of the Croydon Project, to evaluate a large conductive body identified in a previous SAM survey adjacent to previous drilling and high-grade copper-gold rock chips.
• Exploration continuing at the Skywell Project, with further mapping, rock chips and soil sampling programs underway.
