Core’s Jervois Domain drilling underway

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Core has commenced drilling geophysical targets within the Big‐J target zone on the Jervois Domain project

  • Initial program to consist of at least 4,000m of shallow RAB and RC drilling in traverses to test the prospectivity of the targets

  • Numerous drill targets to be tested within a 15km strike length

  • Drill targets have a range of geophysical characteristics consistent with the Sedex/VHMS style of mineralisation identified at KGL’s Jervois project

  • Drill assay results expected in 4‐6 weeks.

Core Exploration (ASX:CXO) is pleased to announce it has commenced drilling on the Company’s 100%‐owned Jervois Domain tenements in the Northern Territory. 14 potential drill targets have been identified by the Company’s geophysical modelling and surveys.

Core’s maiden drilling program will comprise traverses of shallow RAB and RC vertical holes over prospective target zones and specific high priority geophysical targets. Specific targets A1 to G1 have been modelled on a series of sections (A‐G) along the strike length of the prospective Big‐J curve target zone (Figure 1 ‐ 3).

Much of the target geology is buried under a shallow cover of sand and soil and the shallow drill traverses will enable the Company to test the large scale prospectivity of the 15km strike length of the Big‐J feature.

Core is applying similar geophysical tools to those used to characterise and define the nearby Jervois copper and base‐metal mineralisation by KGL Resources and Rox Resources in the same host Bonya Metamorphics geology (Figure 4).

Core and project research partner CSIRO’s analysis of the Company’s geophysical surveys has confirmed multiple magnetic, conductive and chargeable features at large prospect scale within the Big‐J target zone. The geophysical signatures and model fits well with Sedex/VHMS model proposed for the mineralisation at Jervois by recent NTGS research.

Drilling is expected to take 2 weeks to complete and drill results and assays are expected in 4 to 6 weeks.
