Gold success at Eureka and Warriedar
The company is banking on exploration success at two underexplored gold projects, Eureka and Warriedar, in well-known mining districts of Western Australia with both featuring historic high-grade production and close to operating gold mills.
Eureka and Warriedar have granted mining leases in place on core project areas, have walk-up drill targets already defined and are close to established infrastructure.
Both projects represent opportunities for rapid delineation of large shallow high-grade gold resources.
At Eureka, the company is about to complete 12,000 metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling while at Warriedar, it is awaiting program of work approval for a first-pass drill program.
