King River Copper Ltd’s (ASX:KRC) drill program is continuing to return significant drill results at its Mt Remarkable Project in the East Kimberley, Western Australia.
The new results include three very high-grade intersections above the eastern end of the Trudi Grid area:
• 4 metres at 36.77g/t gold from 7 metres including 1 metre at 70.9 g/t gold;
• 3 metres at 29.53 g/t gold from 9 metres including 1 metre at 87.30 g/t gold; and
• 5 metres at 9.03 g/t gold from 8 metres including 1 metre at 28.10 g/t gold.

The newly discovered zone of mineralisation on the Trudi vein demonstrates that this previously unexplored +600 metres strike length of the Trudi vein is likely to be mineralised.

Mechanical issues over the past four weeks have delayed targeting of some deeper zones east along the Trudi Vein where the Grahame Vein is modelled to be in close proximity.
The intersection of this flat east trending Graham trend with a steep west plunging veining association has now been interpreted as the most likely control over the bonanza 100 g/t+ type grades reported in June.

The suspended drilling program is expected to commence as a priority in the coming week.
King River’s recent identification of new epithermal gold mineralisation about 4 kilometres southwest of Trudi Vein may also prove significant for identifying potentially new higher grades and shoots along strike and/or down dip.
