Caprice Resources Ltd (ASX: CRS) has commenced RC drilling the Solis prospect at the Island Gold Project (IGP), located in the Murchison region of Western Australia.
Drilling is following up on the two aircore (AC) programmes which delineated a +1km gold in regolith anomaly.
Both AC programmes returned numerous +1g/t Au results, an outstanding outcome for a first pass aircore programme.
Better results included:
• 1m @ 3.9g/t Au from 28m
• 1m @ 3.6g/t Au from 37m,
• 3m @ 1.2g/t Au from 50m, incl. 1m @ 2.9g/t Au and
• 1m @ 1.5g/t Au from 42m
The drilling should take 10 to 12 days, with assays likely to be returned four to six weeks thereafter.
“With the success of the Solis aircore, we will look to undertake broad spaced aircore drilling to test the remaining two islands, Luna and Estrella, on Lake Austin in the coming months.” Managing Director, Andrew Muir, said.
“Considering Solis has never been drilled before, the large scale of the gold anomalism from the aircore drilling is very promising.
“This RC drilling is the logical next step to test the gold anomaly and should yield important insights into the mineralisation within fresh rock.”
