Tandarra 2012 Drilling
-
Three high-grade lines of reef identified to date – Tomorrow, Macnaughtan & Reynolds lines
-
High grade and visible gold occurs within a broad halo of mineralised quartz close to surface
Tandarra
High-quality project
-
Drill results supportive of conceptual open pit:
-
gold grades range from moderate to high-grade
-
close to surface
-
potentially open-pit mineable
-
near established infrastructure and large workforce
-
open in all directions
-
Gold mineralisation open in all directions – possible same structural position as Four Eagles (north) and extension into Raydarra (south)
