St George Mining (ASX:SGQ) has commenced a large moving loop electromagnetic (MLEM) survey at the Mt Alexander Project located in Western Australia.
Three priority target areas generated by the recent aeromagnetic survey will be covered by the MLEM survey.
These targets include, the intersection of the Cathedrals Belt and the Ida Fault, a structural corridor parallel to the Cathedrals Belt, and anomalies in the recent SAMSON electromagnetic survey.
Any anomalies identified by the MLEM survey will be prioritised for drill testing.
John Prineas, chairman, commented: ““The new magnetic dataset at Mt Alexander has allowed us to generate new target areas which are prospective for ultramafic‐hosted nickel‐copper‐PGE mineralisation.
”The MLEM survey will be the first exploration ever conducted on most of these targets.”
Mt Alexander comprises four granted exploration licences, one of which hosts the Cathedrals, Stricklands and Investigators nickel-copper discoveries.
St George is ramping up its exploration program at Mt Alexander with an upcoming drill program planned, ensuring the company has strong news flow over the near-term.
