De Grey Mining Limited reported the following drilling update at the Hemi Gold Discovery, located approximately 60km south of Port Hedland in Western Australia. Recent drilling has delineated a highly brecciated and extensively sulphide altered subvertical intrusion. This new intrusion has been named Falcon, which has been intersected for over 1.8km in strike, up to 80m thick and to 200m below surface. The intrusion remains open along strike and at depth. Gold mineralisation defined over 1.5km in aircore drill assays with additional assays from drilling along strike is pending. Initial aircore results include a highlight of 21m @ 3.4g/t Au from 40m and 19m @ 2.1g/t Au from 68m.
Metalicity Limited announced the return of the drone magnetic geophysical interpretation for the DCC and Altona Trends from the Kookynie Gold Project in the Eastern Goldfields, Western Australia, approximately 60 kilometres south southwest of Leonora. The company has received all data and interpretations from the ultra-high-resolution drone magnetic survey. The results indicate 21 targets that have similar geophysical and structural settings to known mineralised areas. Furthermore, drilling is still being conducted, there are 24 drill holes remaining at the laboratory pending analysis, which is due imminently with further samples being dispatched periodically, for the Kookynie Gold Project. Commenting on the target generation, Metalicity Managing Director, Jason Livingstone said: “The Footprint of the Kookynie Gold project continues to grow with a further 21 targets across granted tenure being generated from this exercise, this is incredibly exciting.”
Wiluna Mining reports high‐grade results from a further 68 holes and 18,584m of resource development infill drilling at the Wiluna Mining Centre, WA. The Company continues to drill with six rigs currently on site. Infill drilling at Golden Age produces ultra‐high grades up to 880g/t. Milan Jerkovic, Executive Chair commented: The outstanding results provide confidence in our Mineral Resource and Reserve estimates as we release them on a rolling basis from September 2020 through to December 2020 and into next year.”
Strong new drilling results confirm potential to expand existing 4.1Moz Resource at King of the Hills for RED 5 Limited. Latest assays continue to emphasise the scale and quality of the King of the Hills Mineral Resource and opportunities for future Resource extensions, with results including 5.1m @ 56.4g/t Au and 19.2m @ 5.4g/t Au. Managing Director Mark Williams, said recent drilling at King of the Hills (KOTH) had delivered a host of excellent results. “This has been a highly successful drilling program that has both increased our confidence in the existing 4.1 million ounce KOTH bulk Mineral Resource model as well as identifying targets for future Resource growth.”
Further strong assay results from recent aircore (AC) drilling at the East Lynne prospect for Kin Mining, located 3km north-east of the proposed plant site at its Cardinia Gold Project, located near Leonora in Western Australia. The latest East Lynne results confirm mineralisation over 1.3km of strike length. Highlights include, 20m at 0.96g/t Au from 20m, 4m at 2.21g/t Au from 20m and 12m at 1.28g/t Au from 12m. Commenting on the latest drill results, Managing Director Andrew Munckton said: We are eagerly awaiting results from the remaining eight lines of this broad-spaced AC program to get a clearer sense of the potential scale of this target ahead of follow-up RC drilling.
