ASX ANNOUNCEMENT ASX : MRZ | 10-07-2019
MAIDEN DRILL PROGRAM COMMENCING AT THE
EDJUDINA PROJECT, WA
Highlights
-
Final approvals obtained from Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS)
-
Drill contractors engaged; program due to start late July
-
Highest priority geophysical targets to be tested by an initial 102hole air core program
Following completion of the sub-audio magnetics (SAM) survey in June, and the identification of several high-priority targets, Mont Royal Resources Limited (“ Mont Royal ” or the “ Company ”)( ASX:MRZ ) is pleased to announce the Company’s maiden drill program is due to be begin in the last week of July.
Having received government approval from DMIRS, approximately 6,000m of air core drilling has been designed to test a series of structural targets that have the potential to host lode-style gold mineralisation. The MRZ board has recently approved this drill program, and Kalgoorlie drill contractor Raglan Drilling has been engaged to complete the work program.
Non-Executive Chairman
Non-Executive Director
Mont Royal Executive Director Peter Ruse said “ the recent strength of the AUD$2,000/oz gold price makes this an exciting time for the Company to commence its maiden drill program at Edjudina. Mont Royal is set to test multiple robust drill targets in this initial 6,000 metre air core program, that to date, has had very limited modern exploration.”
Drilling
The maiden AC drill program is proposed to begin in the last week of July, with initial assay results expected to be returned before the end of August. Drilling has been designed to test areas of structural complexity, with specific attention given to the regionally significant Pinjin Fault Corridor. Drilling will also be designed to follow-up historic gold intersections of [email protected]/t Au from 58m (ROPW275), [email protected]/t Au from 43m (ROPW245) and [email protected]/t Au from 26m (ROPW183).
The southern half of tenement E39/1992 has been largely overlooked by previous explorers due to a perceived deepening of transported overburden. As a result, the area has never been subject to any modern exploration, inclusive of drilling.
Interpretation of the SAM survey has confirmed the continuation of the Pinjin Fault Corridor within this area of no drill coverage, with several targets identified and proposed to be tested. The Pinjin Fault Corridor is the interpreted host structure at Deep South and Safari Bore Deposits, located approximately 17km to the north of the 100% owned Edjudina Project.

Edjudina Geology
The geology of the Edjudina Project consists of supracrustal sequences, comprising metamorphosed sedimentary and volcanic rocks in greenstone belts of lower greenschist to mid-upper amphibolite facies adjacent to regional granitoid and migmatitic gneisses. The area is almost entirely covered by transported material consisting of colluvium, subordinate laterite, alluvium, dunes and playas lake clays. The greenstone and granitoids are dominated by north–north westerly trending folds, and parallel fault zones that commonly mark apparent truncations of the lithostatigraphy.
