Drilling at Kookynie Project Intersects Gold Mineralisation

Key points

  • 12 hole, 1,200m RC drilling program completed at the Kookynie Gold Project

  • Drilling targeted down plunge extensions of historical high grade workings at the Lily Prospect

  • Drilling intersected gold mineralisation with a best result of; o 2m @ 3.9g/t Au (including 1m @ 6.5g/t Au)

  • Conjugate reef systems defined

  • Laconia has also acquired a large exploration lease immediately southwest of the Lily Prospect

  • The Kookynie project is located near Kalgoorlie in an historical high-grade mining centre and includes P40/1255 and P40/1256

Perth based exploration company Laconia Resources Limited (ASX: LCR) is pleased to announce the results of its recently completed 12 hole, 1,200 metre reverse circulation drilling program at its 100% owned Kookynie Gold Project, near Kalgoorlie.

The drill program commenced in March and was designed to test down dip and plunge extensions of previous intersections at the Lily Prospect within the Kookynie project area (below a line of old workings at the Lily Prospect) on P40/1255.

The Company advises that four angled holes from the drill program intersected gold mineralisation in the footwall vein, and produced a best result of 2 metres @ 3.9g/t Au (including 1 metre @ 6.5g/t Au from 38 metres down hole), at hole KRC004. Significant intersections are presented below.

Note 1: Sampling was conducted on 4 composite metre intervals with some selected samples sampled on a 1 metre basis. Samples being assayed for Au using aqua regia digest with AAS finish. Projected Coordinate System ‐ GDA94, MGA Zone 51.

The host rock at the Kookynie project is a magnetic dolerite/gabbro unit. The Lily Prospect is situated on one of a number of conjugate vein sets with historical gold workings.

Laconia has also acquired a large exploration lease immediately to the southwest of the Lily Prospect (E40/260).

The drill program was Laconia’s maiden drill campaign at the Kookynie project. The project is host to a number of old workings, including the Lily Prospect, and some significant intersections have previously been recorded at Lily which highlighted the prospectivity for the project to host small high-grade deposits.

The Kookynie project is located approximately 200km from Kalgoorlie (see Project Location Map attached), in the Melita Domain of the Keith–Kilkenny Tectonic Zone, within the NNW-trending Archaean Malcom greenstone belt. The Keith-Kilkenny Tectonic Zone in the vicinity of Kookynie is a triangular shaped area hosting a succession of Archaean mafic-ultramafic igneous and metasedimentary rocks.
