Adavale Resources Limited (ASX: ADD) has recommenced drilling at its Kabanga Jirani Nickel Project in Tanzania.
“The company is excited to recommence drilling on its high priority targets, including new drill collar locations generated from integrating new geochemical soil data obtained during the wet season. Drilling is expected to include an initial mix of RC and diamond drilling totalling 5,000m over the coming months,” Executive Director, David Riekie, said
Stage 1 Drilling Campaign
The initial drilling programme has recommenced within the Luhuma Trend situated within a narrow strike extensive zone in Adavale’s Kabanga North-East Licence.
Drilling will include an initial RC and DD campaign of 5,000m, comprising 12 RC holes to ~150m depth and 8-10 DD holes to ~350m depth.
Priority areas identified for drilling in 2023 include the promising HEM 2 target and confirming a 15km strike extension to the north that sits within the broader Luhuma trend.1
This trend hosts a series of mafic-ultramafic intrusions from which several historical massive Ni sulphide intersections have been reported and contain prospective host rocks and known sulphide mineralisation and is considered highly prospective.
Audio magnetotelluric (AMT) surveys and Downhole Electromagnetics (DHEM) will be undertaken during the drilling campaign. DD core and RC chips will initially be assessed at the exploration field camp by the Company’s exploration team using pXRF before dispatching selected samples for assay.
