-
As previously reported, significant potential exists to increase the resources base through screening upgrade of the silica rich zones located around existing chrysoprase workings.
- At both Eucalyptus and to a lesser extent Mount Kilkenny, silica banding has been identified in chrysoprase pits.
- Sampling of the nickeliferous clays between the silica banding has provided nickel assays from 1.2% to 2.3%.
- A drill programme within the silica zones at Mount Kilkenny will be undertaken to evaluate the screening concept.
- Potential exists to unlock substantial tonnages should the screening work prove successful.
- The Company is still to decide whether the nickel-laterite resources, on the granted mining leases, may to be treated at Murrin Murrin JV Glencore via toll milling, or to be stand alone projects needing a treatment plant.
-
ELA 39/1107, Part of the overall NiWest project area.
- The prospect is to the east and south of the Kilkenny laterite project and includes the Mt Kildare copper zinc prospect.
- Exploration drilling for base metals (copper & zinc) in the early seventies reported drill intercepts of up to 5% zinc.
- Rock chip sampling returned copper assays up to 11%.
