ASX/Media Release
20 October 2020
SULPHUR SPRINGS COPPER-ZINC PROJECT UPDATE
Highlights:
-
Drilling to commence on the 21[st] October
-
XA8 first high-potential target within proximity to existing resources
-
To be followed by Breakers prospect
Venturex Resources Ltd (“ Venturex ” or “the Company”) ( ASX: VXR ) is pleased to provide an exploration update at its 100%-owned Sulphur Springs Copper-Zinc Project in Western Australia.
After experiencing an unavoidable delay to exploration drilling the Company is pleased to advise that the contactor is now on site and first hole will commence on the 21[st] October 2020.
SULPHUR SPRINGS COPPER-ZINC PROJECT
The Sulphur Springs Project is located south-east of Port Hedland and includes the proposed Sulphur Springs and Kangaroo Caves mines, together with tenements covering ~27km of the Panorama trend that contains numerous advanced VMS-style exploration targets. The Sulphur Springs Project hosts a total Mineral Resource (Sulphur Springs + Kangaroo Caves) comprising 17.4 million tonnes grading 1.3% copper, 4.2% zinc and 17g/t silver ( refer ASX announcements, 22 September 2015 and 21 March 2018 ).
EXPLORATION DRILLING
The planned program is designed to follow-up on the exceptional results generated from 2019 drilling at the advanced Breakers Prospect (see ASX release 4 September 2019), as well as to test the Heli-borne Electromagnetic (HEM) target XA8, where previous drilling intersected anomalous Ni-Cr mineralisation.
The program will commence at the XA8 prospect with two drill holes planned to test the downplunge and along-strike continuation of a DHEM target and associated Ni-Cr mineralisation previously intersected at the XA8 Prospect (see ASX releases 27 November 2017, 13 August 2018 & 26 June 2019) . The strongly anomalous Ni-Cr+/-Co mineral assemblage is hosted within a favourable mafic/ultramafic intrusive unit that is interpreted to be highly prospective to host nickel-sulphide style mineralisation.
Following XA8 we move to the Breakers prospect where four drill holes are designed to follow-up the along-strike and down-plunge continuation of massive sulphide mineralisation intersected at the Breakers Main Gossan, including the thick, high-grade intersection within BRK005 ( 18m @ 7.75% Zn ) ( see ASX release 17 June 2019) .
An additional two drill-holes will also be completed to follow-up zinc-rich mineralisation intersected in BKR007 ( 8m @ 3.37% Zn ) ( see ASX release 17 June 2019) at the Breakers North target, located approximately 1.1km NNE of the Breakers Main anomaly.
