Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL, “Galileo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce RC drilling has commenced at the Company’s 100% owned Norseman project located within the prolific Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt of Western Australia.

The drill program is concentrated on the sulphide intersections identified by previous Galileo drilling at the Mt Thirsty and Jimberlana prospects. Early indications of economic sulphides have been reported in aircore and RC drilling, and the current program aims to confirm mineralisation whilst aiming to define zones of higher palladium and nickel metal content.

Galileo’s Managing Director Brad Underwood commented; “ We are excited to be drilling two prospects where fertile sulphides have already been intersected. At the Mt Thirsty prospect, we have a well-developed target where sulphides have accumulated above a sedimentary marker unit. The sulphides contain palladium, nickel, and copper, and the grades appear to be increasing towards the eastern target zone.

At the Jimberlana prospect we have multiple geochemical and geophysical targets in addition to a unit of massive sulphide intersected in aircore drilling. The aircore rig did not drill through the sulphide and so we will take the opportunity to use the bigger RC rig to follow up with a deeper twinned drill hole.

The coveted, high-value nature of palladium and nickel sulphides means that the outcome of this program could be very significant for Galileo. We look forward to drill testing these outstanding prospects and updating the market with results as they become available.“

About Galileo Mining:

Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL) is focussed on the exploration and development of nickel, copper and cobalt resources in Western Australia. GAL has Joint Ventures with the Creasy Group over tenements in the Fraser Range which are highly prospective for nickel-copper sulphide deposits similar to the operating Nova mine. GAL also holds tenements near Norseman with over 26,000 tonnes of contained cobalt, and 122,000 tonnes of contained nickel, in JORC compliant resources (see JORC Table below).

JORC Mineral Resource Estimates for the Norseman Cobalt Project (“Estimates”) (refer to ASX “Prospectus” announcement dated May 25[th] 2018 and ASX announcement dated 11[th] December 2018, accessible at http://www.galileomining.com.au/investors/asx-announcements/).
