DRILLING PROGRAM COMMENCES AT LEWIS PONDS
Commencement of Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drilling program of the Quarry Lode at Lewis Ponds
Godolphin Resources Limited (ASX: GRL) ( “Godolphin” or the “Company” ) is pleased to announce that, following drill rig mobilisation earlier last week, drilling has successfully re-commenced at Godolphin’s 100% owned Lewis Ponds Project within EL5583, located in the Lachlan Fold Belt.
The targeted 4-hole, Reverse Circulation ( “RC” ) drilling program of the near surface Quarry Lode at Lewis Ponds (“ Quarry Lode ”) has commenced.

As previously reported, due to its extensive historic gold and base metal workings, the Lewis Ponds Project is a high exploration priority for Godolphin. The current Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate ( “MRE” ) is 6.2Mt @ 2.0g/t gold, 80g/t silver, 2.7% zinc, 1.6% lead & 0.2% copper (GRL’s ASX Announcement 2 Feb 2021).
The Quarry Lode is located to the northwest of the current MRE and has been intersected at depth in previous deep drilling. It is interpreted that the Quarry Lode also occurs near the surface and in an area to the north, which is undrilled.
The current drilling is for testing the Quarry Lode, following a strong soil geochemical anomaly exceeding 200ppb (GRL’s ASX Announcement 15 Sept 2020).
Godolphin’s Managing Director, Jeneta Owens commented:
“It is a great outcome that we have been able to get this drill program underway safely. The delays caused by heavy rain over July, combined with the snap Covid lockdowns in NSW were unavoidable. However, they have allowed us to fully prepare to mobilise when the time was right.
It is an exciting time for Godolphin and the Lewis Ponds Project as this drill campaign has the potential to increase the Lewis Ponds Mineral Resource northwards and we look forward to updating the market with the results of the Quarry Lode drilling program.”
