Nickel exploration drilling commenced, Mt Eureka Project
SUMMARY
-
Statutory approvals now received - drilling has commenced to complete the suspended progamme.
-
In addition, four new high-priority targets for nickel sulphides to be tested: two identified from ground EM survey data (eastern ultramafics); and two from previous VTEM and ground EM data (western ultramafics) – (see CUL: ASX, 23 May, 2014).
-
Programme anticipated to comprise 8-12 RC holes for 1200-1500m in total, with assay results expected in 4-6 weeks after end of drilling.
New targets (as described 23 May 2014, ASX announcement and see Figures below)
-
Eastern Ultramafics (E53/1209) – strong, new ground EM conductor identified
-
Eastern Ultramafics (E53/1637) – new ground EM conductor interpreted
-
Western Ultramafics – south (E53/1209 and E53/1637) – re-modelled conductor trend
-
Western Ultramafics – north (E53/1209) discrete, 1[st] order VTEM anomaly
Other developments
“AK47” Prospect
In addition to the above targets, Cullen has commenced a review of all geological and geophysical data available for the “AK47” nickel prospect where drilling in 2002-2003 by WMC, a previous joint venture partner, intersected 0.2m of massive sulphide with 1.93% Ni, with 0.42% Cu and 0.7g/t Pt+Pd.
Preliminary re-interpretation of the prospect geology and geophysical data appears to show that previous drill testing may not have been conclusive and that significant potential remains for the presence of massive, primary Ni sulphide mineralisation down dip from the drilled Ni intersections. New ground EM surveying and further drilling is planned, subject to all statutory approvals.
Wonganoo Prospect
Four lines of ground EM surveying at the Wonganoo Prospect (E53/1611 - see figures below) returned several strong conductors across the targeted komatiite horizon. Interpretation of the data has provided modelled conductor plates for first pass drill testing, possibly as part of the current programme.
