Artemis Resources (ASX:ARV) has started a second drill program at its Eastern Hills antimony-lead project in Western Australia’s Ashburton region.
The reverse circulation holes will test the high grade Dugite East zone below surface rockchips that returned up to 35.7% antimony and 36% lead.
It will also test a potentially high grade zone of 250 metres strike length.
The short program is partly funded through the Western Australian State Government’s Exploration Incentive Scheme, which will pay for half of drilling costs to $60,000.
Drilling under a similar grant in 2013 had resulted in a Resource of 1.3 million tonnes at 1.7% antimony and 2.5% lead using a 1% cut-off grade for the Taipan Zone.
