Medusa Mining announces discovery of magnetite-copper-gold porphyry
Medusa Mining, best known for producing gold from the high grade Co-0 Mine in the Philippines, announced that first pass drilling at the Kamarangan Prospect had intersected “visible copper and molybdenum”. Drilling also intersected massive magnetite with copper and gold mineralisation in the overlying skarn rocks.
Assays from upper sections of the first two holes had been returned, and included 11 metres grading 0.5 grams per tonne gold, 0.66% copper in Hole Kam 1, which was within the skarn rocks. The second hole, drilled through weathered diorite, and returned 29 metres grading 0.15% copper, and 3.2 metres grading 1.35 grams per tonne gold and 1.49% copper in skarn rock. The assays from the remainder of the holes are pending, as are results for the magnetite grade.
Geoff Davis, Managing Director of Medusa, stated:
"The Company is delighted with the success from the first two on-going holes at Kamarangan. These demonstrate that the previously identified regional-scale features are indeed linked to a potentially major mineralised porphyry system, with indications of significant mineralisation in the surrounding rocks. As soon as more rigs are available, Kamarangan together with Lingig and the on-going drilling at Co-O will be the major foci for some time to come."
