Greatland Gold plc (AIM:GGP), the mineral exploration and development
company focused on gold projects in Tasmania and Western Australia, said results from diamond core drilling at Firetower West confirmed gold and base metal mineralisation. Firetower West is a new zone located approximately 2.5 kilometres north-west of the main Firetower prospect.
Greatland said that two diamond drill holes completed on Firetower West intercepted mineralisation; highlights included 3 metres at 1.2 grams per tonne gold. The company also intercepted 1 meter of 1.44% copper and 1 meter at 1.06% Zinc. The Company now intends to carry out additional mapping and sampling to further understand the geology at Firetower West.
