Abstract

Post hole RAB in area A defined two anomalous but parallel zones in excess of 1km length. Maximum values were 117ppb Au and 33ppb Au. These anomalies appear to be associated with different structures. Two further RAB programs were completed at Jim's South and in the east and south east of the licence. Two anomalies were outlined a) Bones - maximum value 26ppb Au and b) Yoda - a NW striking anomaly of some 400m extent with a maximum value of 115ppb Au. Infill drilling supported the anomalism. Follow up angled RAB at Kirk returned only broad intercepts of low grade gold mineralisation. Programs were completed at Spark, Yoda and Chewy. The most promising results came from Spark with a best result of 6m at 5.83g-t Au. RC Drilling at Jim's Track encountered broad, low grade mineralisation. A pair of scissor holes were completed at Galaxy. Results from Galaxy suggest steeply easterly dipping structures. Follow up diamond drilling returned 15m at 4.13g-t Au include 2m at 26.75g-t Au at Galaxy from GRC018. Further RC at Galaxy showed continuation of the structure.
