HIGHLIGHTS
-
Roadworks are nearing completion on the new Upper Accrington Road in preparation for the mobilisation of a second drill rig to test thick copper bearing skarns
-
Copper mineralisation has been exposed by the roadworks across 50m confirming the stratabound nature of mineralisation within skarns
-
Contract signed with Major Drilling for a second drill rig which will allow Alderan to accelerate drill testing of the Accrington copper skarns whilst the first drill rig completes the deep drill hole to the Perseverance porphyry copper prospect
-
As announced on 27 June 2018, the drill hole testing the Perseverance porphyry copper prospect is continuing and is now expected to be completed in early August following difficulties faced by the Company’s contractor, one of the worlds leading drilling Companies

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 13 July 2018
Alderan Resources Limited (ASX: AL8) is pleased to announce that roadworks and drill pad preparation are nearing completion on the Upper Accrington Road which will allow the mobilisation of a second drill rig to accelerate drilling at Accrington. Drilling along the Upper Accrington Road is designed to test thick copper bearing skarns as part of an overall 7000m drill program which started at Imperial in June. These drill holes will systematically test the thick copper bearing skarns to a depth of between 300-500m across an area of approximately 700m by up to 300m. Major Drilling has been contracted by the Company for the second drill rig.
Road building has also exposed the upper parts of the Accrington skarn system resulting in a fresh outcrop of approximately 50m of variably mineralised, stratabound skarn, with copper mineralisation indicated by malachite staining and chalcopyrite in outcrop. The whole length of the outcrop has been sampled for assay with results expected in August.
Drilling of the deep diamond drill hole to test the large Perseverance porphyry copper prospect is continuing. As announced on 27 June 2018, the Company’s contractor, one of the worlds leading drilling Companies, experienced excessive deviation on ALIM001 and unforeseen equipment/staffing delays. The drill rig was moved to a nearby drill pad with the current drill hole ALIM003 now planned to a depth of at least 1000m to test Perseverance. This hole is expected to be completed by early August.
