ASX RELEASE 2 February 2012 ASX Code: PMQ
Torchlight Drill Results & Cash Update
Key Points
-
Planet Metals has received all assays from the recent drill program at the Torchlight gold prospect (near Georgetown in North Queensland). Details of the program were outlined in the Company’s quarterly report released to the ASX on 24 January 2012.
-
No significant results were received from this scout program and the Company will now review its farm-in agreement with Callabonna as to its future involvement. Planet Metals has completed its minimum obligations with respect to this agreement and has the right to withdraw at any time without further cost.
-
Less than $200,000 has been spent on the Torchlight exploration program, and despite intersecting anomalous gold up to 0.17g/t Au, none of the intercepts were considered significant. The targeted zone, being the contact between the granite and metadolerite, was consistently intersected by each drill hole. This zone was represented by a silicified fault with disseminated sulphides throughout the hanging wall, however assay results showed that this zone was relatively barren.
-
The Company continues to aggressively pursue opportunities within the metals sector, both within and outside of Australia, primarily in gold and copper.
-
Planet’s cash position has been boosted through the further sale of part of its shareholding in Frankfurt-listed Deutsche Rohstoff AG since its December quarterly cash flow report. As at 1 February 2012, Planet Metals had $5.3 million in cash, which equates to 8.9 cents per share.
-
In addition, the Company holds over $1.0 million worth of Deutsche Rohstoff AG shares at current prices and will be continuing to realise the value of this investment in coming months.
-
Cash and equity investments total $6.3 million, representing 10.6 cents per share.
