DRILLING UNDERWAY ON NEW TARGETS WITHIN THE IRONBARK CORRIDOR
HIGHLIGHTS
-
➢ RC and Air-core (AC) drilling has commenced at the Saltbush prospect south of Ironbark within the flagship Side Well Gold Project
-
➢ This is the first drilling to test a series of new targets within the 14km Ironbark corridor
-
➢ All heritage clearances have now been received following field surveys in September and October 2023
-
➢ Systematic testing of priority targets will continue in January 2024
Great Boulder Resources Limited (“ Great Boulder ” or the “ Company ”) (ASX: GBR ) is pleased to advise that drilling has commenced on new gold targets within the Side Well Gold Project (“ Side Well ”) near Meekatharra in Western Australia following receipt of heritage clearance on Friday.
Great Boulder’s Managing Director, Andrew Paterson commented:
“This program at the Saltbush prospect marks an important milestone at Side Well, as it is the first drilling to test a series of exciting new targets within the 14km Ironbark corridor.”
“We will complete a short program of shallow RC and AC holes at Saltbush before Christmas, then store the rig nearby ready to recommence field work after the break in January.”
“Saltbush is an exciting walk-up drill target with several historic shafts in which we’ve taken rock chip samples assaying up to 14.85g/t Au (ASX announcement 23/2/2023) , which demonstrates the presence of gold mineralisation close to surface. There is also a broad geochemical anomaly more than 400m long defined by auger sampling.”
“For context, Ironbark was originally defined by two adjacent geochemical samples on one line of auger holes, and GBR successfully turned that into a 100,000oz Au discovery. We are aiming to replicate that success with multiple new targets within the corridor.”
The current program will consist of five RC holes around the historic Saltbush workings followed by fences of AC drilling testing the broader geochemical anomaly. Drilling will be completed on Friday, December 22[nd] , after which the rig will be stored at nearby Sherwood Station until field work recommences in January 2024.
Assay results are expected in late January or early February 2024.
This announcement has been approved by the Great Boulder Board.
