Moho Resources Ltd (ASX:MOH) is making strong progress with nickel sulphide exploration programs at the Silver Swan North Project in Western Australia.
At the Black Swan South Prospect, passive seismic survey and geochemical assays are underway to investigate potential structure or channel development.
Meanwhile, at the tenements that are part of an option agreement with Yandal Resources Ltd (ASX:YRL), portable XRF analysis of drill samples is underway to assess potential metal content for nickel-copper-PGE mineralisation.
Looking ahead, Moho is planning a diamond drill program to drill below previous RC drilling to follow the southeast plunge of the potential structure or channel development as well as to test potential EM targets.
“Critical information”
Moho managing director Ralph Winter said: “This next phase of geophysical work at Black Swan South will assist Moho in defining the potential structure or channel development and give the company critical information on vectoring in on the historic Norilsk EM signature.
“The ultimate aim would be to use this data to plan some strategic diamond holes to target the EM anomaly and also drill deeper to follow the dip of the Komatiite flow towards the southeast.”
Yandal tenements
Moho entered into a binding heads agreement with Yandal Resources on November 11, 2021, giving Moho the exclusive right to access, explore for, own, mine, recover, process and sell all nickel, copper, cobalt and PGEs extracted from 15 granted mining tenements held by Yandal.
Moho has identified +-650 geochemical sample pulps to be re-analysed for nickel and PGEs to be integrated into the geochemical model for Silver Swan North.
Forward plan
Moho will conduct a downhole electromagnetic (DHEM) survey at select recent RC holes and historic diamond holes at the Black Swan South and Wise prospects.
Review and interpretation of seismic, DHEM surveys and RC drill data will be used to generate a geological model which will aid the preparation of a diamond drill program.
The aim of the drill program is to drill below previous RC drilling and follow the southeast plunge of the potential structure or channel development as well as to test potential EM targets.
