27 November 2019 ASX Announcement
Third Diamond Drillhole Commenced at Area D
-
A third diamond drillhole is underway following up the first drillhole (RKDD005) results and targeting gabbronorite host rocks under aircore nickel-copper sulphides
-
The second diamond drillhole intersected multiple thick intervals of graphite –
downhole EM surveying is underway and further detailed analysis is required
Legend Mining Limited (Legend) is pleased to announce the commencement of a third diamond drillhole (RKDD007) in the current programme at Area D and the initial results from the second diamond drillhole (RKDD006) which was targeting the D1 conductor.
Legend Managing Director Mr Mark Wilson said, “The positive results from the first hole were a key driver in the decision to drill a third hole whilst the rig is on site. This hole will target the gabbronorite host rock beneath the previously identified anomalous aircore nickel-copper mineralisation.
“Further analysis of the core logging, assays and petrology from the second hole and reconciliation of previous LF-MLTEM with downhole EM models is required to plan the next programmes at the D1 conductor.”

TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
Based on the encouraging geology including disseminated and blebby sulphides in gabbronorite host rocks from the recently completed diamond drillhole RKDD005 and sulphides in previous aircore holes, a third diamond drillhole (RKDD007) has commenced at Area D.
RKDD007 was collared approximately 200m ESE of RKDD005 and will test beneath aircore drillholes RKAC183 and RKAC225 which intersected pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite-pentlandite also hosted in gabbronorite (see Figure 1 & Table 1). These drillholes returned anomalous intersections of; 14m @ 0.37% Ni and 0.43% Cu from 72m to EOH in RKAC183 and 19m @ 0.23% Ni and 0.33% Cu from 52m to EOH in RKAC225 (see ASX announcements 9 April 2018 & 12 June 2018). The gabbronorite hosting these aircore results was originally targeted in the bottom of RKDD005, however was not intersected due to steeper than expected dipping stratigraphy. The hole has a planned depth of 350m.
The second diamond drillhole of the programme RKDD006 testing the strong D1 conductor at Area D has now been completed to a depth of 473.7m (see Figure 1 & Table 1). RKDD006 intersected a broad metasediment and granulite package containing multiple thick graphitic bands between 262-321m, which is shallower than the modelled D1 conductor depth of ~350m. Downhole electromagnetic surveying is currently underway.
