Aruma Resources’ (ASX: AAJ) reverse circulation drilling program has confirmed and extended the known gold mineralisation at the Marks Prospect of its Jundee South Project in Western Australia.
Jundee South is located 60 kilometres east of Wiluna and about 25 kilometres south of Newmont Mining’s (NYSE: NEM) Jundee Gold Mine.
Ten of the 13 holes intersected anomalous gold mineralisation including 12 metres at 1.85 grams per tonne gold from 47 metres including 6 metres at 3.44g/t gold and 16 metres at 1.22g/t gold from 14 metres including 3 metres at 3.15g/t gold.
Notably, the gold mineralisation is both shallow and thick while remaining open to the west.
The mineralisation is in several rock types indicating a LODE system, with associated quartz, sulphides and carbonates
The drill program was designed to follow up the previously reported rotary air blast programs with notable intersections of 35 metres at 2.31g/t gold and 17 metres at 1.87g/t gold.
Aruma will undertake geochemical surveys to define the extent of the mineralisation using infill geochemistry and the previously flown HyMap data combined with 3D modelling.
