Surefire Resources NL (ASX:SRN) has demonstrated gold continuity outside known targets and geochemical anomalies during a reverse circulation (RC) drill program at the Yidby Gold Project in Western Australia.
Confirming this continuity, new assays range up to an impressive 20.81 g/t gold, marking an important advancement in the understanding of mineralisation within the area.
During the program, Surefire intersected multiple sulphide intervals hosting gold, indicating broad mineralised envelopes spanning several kilometres in a northwest trend.
With the Yidby Project mineralisation extending for more than three kilometres, geoscientific consulting firm Southern Geoscience has been commissioned to conduct a thorough review of magnetics and gravity in light of these latest results to further aid in target generation.
Clear mineralising trends
Surefire managing director Paul Burton said: “The results from the 4-metre composites are encouraging and continue to show mineralisation extending beyond our previous intersects.
"The 1-metre are now being assayed for results with these expected in the coming weeks.
“The project has clear mineralising trends now evident which provide targets for future drilling as the project evolves”
Forward plan
Surefire awaits the results from the 1-metre intervals samples which will provide further information on the type of coarse gold in the area.
The company has also engaged Southern Geoscience (SGS) to undertake a close-spaced detailed review of the Yidby geophysical data.
This review is expected to provide a more detailed lithology and structural interpretation extending from the Surefire drilling, to identify untested along-strike anomalous areas for follow-up geochemistry or drilling exploration.
