Drilling at new regional target
Recently, the company received high-grade near-surface results from aircore drilling of another regional target at Break of Day deposit within the flagship Cue Gold Project in Western Australia’s Murchison district.
A further 97 aircore drill holes have been completed in the current regional exploration program with the latest results from Target 17, which is 300 metres east of Break of Day.
This delivered strong high-grade results of up to 6 metres at 11.5 g/t gold from 18 metres within a broader interval of 24 metres at 3.4 g/t from 18 metres.
The program is focused on the potential for near-surface, high-grade gold mineralisation on structures cross-cutting stratigraphy like that seen at Starlight and potential new structural gold corridors parallel to the Lena/Break of Day corridor.
Lake Austin JV
The company has also completed phase-2 aircore drilling testing high-priority gold targets on the Lake Austin JV with Evolution Mining Ltd (ASX:EVN) and assays are expected through to late January 2021.
The compilation of full results will take place in the new year to rank and prioritise targets in what is developing as a large mineral system.
