Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX: BGD) has further expanded recently extended RC drilling programme at the Tunkillia Gold Project in South Australia.
The programme will now include up to ~2,000m diamond drilling (DD) targeting the depth extensions of the 223 Deposit and the new ~500m long Area 51 gold zone recently announced in September 2022.
The programme will inform an updated Mineral Resources Estimate (MRE) at Tunkillia, where the project’s total mineralized footprint has grown significantly via the discovery of three new gold zones (223 North, Area 191 and Area 51) since November 2021.
“We continue to be encouraged by what we are seeing in-field. The addition of diamond drilling across both the 223 Deposit and Area 51 will generate significant additional information for Mineral Resource and structural modelling,” said the company’s managing director, Alex Scanlon.
“We are aiming to complete this drilling before year end, the results of which will inform an MRE update based on more than 30,000m of drilling completed since our June 2021 IPO.
“We expect our first RC assay results shortly, with the balance of RC and DD assays to be released during December, January, and February.”
