July 19th, 2010
Summary
- Angled drill hole ID16A intersects 7m @ 52.5% iron in the Yampi Member.
- Two intersections of 35m @ 25.0% iron and 16m @ 25.5% iron are returned from the overlying Wonganin Sandstone in drill hole ID16A.
- Vertical drill hole ID16B intersects 12m @ 55.9% iron in the Yampi Member
- Three intersections of 13m @ 25.5% iron, 9m @ 23.4% iron, 30m @ 23.9% iron (including 8m @ 33.6% iron) are returned from the overlying Wonganin Sandstone.
Cethana Drilling update
June 24th, 2010The first drill hole (CETD3) in the current drilling program at the Cethana tenement (EL29/2006) in North West Tasmania has been completed. The current two-hole diamond drilling program is targeting porphyry-style copper/gold.
The first drill hole was terminated at 373m after intersecting the Campbell’s Reward chargeability anomaly at Cethana. The chargeability anomaly is characterised by disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralisation from 253.5-278m, with stronger chalcopyrite mineralisation from 265-278m.
The chargeability zone is also a strong alteration feature with peripheral volcanic rocks altered to chlorite and epidote (propylitic alteration) and the mineralised zone containing higher grade biotite alteration suggesting proximity to a mineralised source.
The potential source of the mineralisation found in CETD3 will be targeted at depth some 300m east by drill hole CETD4, which will commence this week.
