Sultan Resources Limited (ASX: SLZ) ( Sultan or Company ) is pleased to provide an update on the progress of its 2021 porphyry and epithermal gold exploration program in the Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW. The program is the continuation of the 2020 campaign, with drill testing and geophysical surveys ongoing across the Company’s highly prospective suite of Macquarie Arc porphyry and epithermal gold targets.
Drilling – Tucklan Epithermal Gold Project
During late 2020, the Company commenced drill-testing of Induced Polarisation (IP) anomalies beneath strong gold and copper surface geochemistry at the Tucklan project (see ASX Announcement 07/12/2020). Tucklan displays geophysical and geochemical characteristics of porphyry-related epithermal gold mineralisation and Sultan embarked on a series of five deep Reverse Circulation drill holes, with a provision for up to a further 7 if results warrant, to test the source of the strongest IP anomalies.
Drilling conditions at Tucklan proved to be challenging for the RC rig, with the initial five holes all producing large amounts of water which compromised the quality of sample return. Only one hole continued to the design depth, with the rest terminated early to be completed with diamond core tails in 2021.
The diamond rig has now mobilised to Tucklan and has commenced diamond drilling the tails to penetrate the strongest of the IP anomalies. Sultan plans to initially complete two diamond tails and await assay results from the entire program to date before deciding on which of the 7 additional holes to complete.
Induced Polarisation – Big Hill Au-Cu Porphyry Project
Fender Geophysics has mobilised the crew to continue with the IP program at the Big Hill and Gowans Green targets. Big Hill and Gowan’s Green are located in EL8735 and present as exceptional porphyry and skarn Au-Cu targets. The IP survey comprises four N-S lines each of 4.6km in length. The program is designed to locate deep drill targets indicative of potential porphyry mineralisation and will guide the planning of drill holes to be undertaken during the 1[st] half of 2021.
