RIEDEL APPOINTS BOART-LONGYEAR FOR DRILLING PROGRAM AT KINGMAN GOLD PROJECT IN ARIZONA
Highlights:
-
Experienced drill contractor Boart-Longyear appointed to undertake drill program
-
5,000m reverse-circulation drill program scheduled to commence at month-end
-
Testing several historic areas mined previously for high-grade Gold and Silver
-
Testing new geophysical targets proximal to historic workings
Riedel Resources Limited (ASX: RIE or the Company) is pleased to confirm that it has appointed experienced drilling contractor Boart-Longyear to undertake the reverse-circulation (RC) drilling program at the high-grade Kingman Gold-Silver Project in Arizona, USA.
Boart-Longyear are one of the largest drilling contractors who have extensive drilling experience in the USA. The 5,000m RC program is a substantial program that will test a number of the areas where highgrade gold and silver was mined from the 1880’s to the 1940’s and where high grades were intersected at shallow depths in the late-2019 diamond drill program (refer RIE ASX Announcement 23 October 2020 for details of these results) .
In addition, it is intended to also drill test new areas including ‘Jim’s’ where previous historic mining and more recent geophysics has highlighted a prospective area.
At this stage it is anticipated that drilling will commence by month end subject to completion of the permitting process and rig mobilisation.
Riedel Chairman Michael Bohm stated “We are excited to be kicking off 2021 with a fully funded 5,000m RC drilling program so early in the new year. The drill campaign will primarily focus on high priority targets at the Kingman Project including at Arizona-Magma, Merrimac, Tintic and at Jim’s.
As stated previously, the high gold and silver grades mined historically at the Kingman Project and replicated in the 2019 diamond drilling program, point to the significant opportunity at Kingman.
This is a large project area covering a historic mineral field that has seen very little modern exploration and will be, we believe, the largest single drill program ever undertaken on the property.
I look forward to reporting back to shareholders with drill results soon after the drilling commences”.
This ASX announcement was authorised for release by the Board of Directors.
