Acquires tenement immediately west of new copper prospects
Australian resources company TNG Limited (ASX: TNG) is pleased to advise that it has entered into agreement to further expand its strategic landholding in the Mount Hardy Copper Field, located 300km north-west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory, by acquiring an additional tenement, EL 28694, immediately adjacent to its recently announced exploration activity.
The new tenement abuts the Company’s existing EL's in the Mount Hardy region ( see Figure 1 ) and secures an additional 413km[2] area around the Mount Doreen granite, which TNG believes may be the source of the metalliferous fluids forming the Mount Hardy copper fields.
In addition, the tenement contains other prospective areas that TNG understands have been poorly explored.
TNG has agreed to acquire the tenement from privately owned company Tierra Rica Pty Ltd, for consideration of $95,000 subject to due diligence and all regulatory approvals.
Once the acquisition is completed TNG will boost its total portfolio of prospective copper ground under licence in the Northern Territory to over 10,000 km[2] , representing one of the largest portfolios of prospective copper ground under licence in the region.
TNG recently commenced a significant Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program at Mount Hardy to test priority geophysical targets outlined by recent field exploration work, including outstanding rock chip sample results with peak grades of 35.0% copper, 6.85% zinc, 16.15% lead and 7.93g/t gold ( see ASX Announcements – 27 September 2012, 2 October 2012 and 10 October 2012).
The first hole from this program intersected a significant interval of massive and disseminated sulphides ( see ASX Announcement – 7 November 2012 ), with assay results currently awaited and expected shortly.
TNG’s Managing Director, Mr Paul Burton, said he was very pleased to have further consolidated the Company’s land-holding in this highly prospective area.
“We are very pleased to have secured this new tenement, which, subject to successful due diligence and approvals, provides TNG with additional access to areas surrounding the Mount Doreen granite, which we believe to be an important strategic component of the regional geology for copper mineralisation”.
