Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced at its 100% owned Subzero Copper Prospect near the town of Norseman in Western Australia. This will be the first round of drilling conducted at the prospect where Moving Loop Electro-Magnetic (MLEM) surveying has defined a highly conductive target beneath an historic prospecting shaft.[(1)]

The first RC drilling program will test for mineralisation beneath the historic workings and will test the modelled EM conductor at a position closest to the outcrop. The prospective conductive horizon extends over 2.1km of strike length with the depth to the top of the conductors estimated between 80 and 110 metres below surface.[(1)] Additional targets, representing the strongest conductive responses within the 2km prospective trend, are scheduled for drilling in a second program later in the year.

Early stage drilling is also being undertaken at the Goblin lithium-pegmatite prospect and at the Mission Sill gold prospect. Assay results from the drilling programs are expected to be available in September.

Galileo Mining Managing Director commented; “ We are excited to begin our first drilling campaign at the Subzero Prospect where surface indications and geophysical surveys suggest the potential for a large mineralised system. Galileo is a well-funded and active explorer with a strong commitment to drilling prospective targets which present an opportunity to create value for our shareholders”

Figure 1 below illustrates the planned locations of the first drill holes at the Subzero prospect with drilling designed to scope the geology and to understand the potential for mineralisation.
