Further Positive Results At Hemi Gold Discovery
De Grey Mining Limited (ASX: DEG) continues to extend the Aquila and Crow zones with its ongoing drilling programme at the Hemi Gold Discovery, located approximately 60km south of Port Hedland in Western Australia.
The Aquila and Crow zones are located adjacent and to the north of the large Brolga intrusion at Hemi. Extensional step out drilling in these two zones continues at a nominal 80m x 80m spacing to the northwest. Some infill resource definition drilling to a 40m x 80m spacing has been completed mainly in the central and eastern portions of Crow.
The infill drilling programme will continue over the coming months at all the Hemi zones to enable a robust resource estimate targeting a high level of JORC 2012 Indicated category resources. The initial Hemi resource estimate is planned for the middle of 2021.
Managing Director, Glenn Jardine, said step out and infill drilling at Hemi is on-going and the latest results at Aquila and Crow continue to firm up areas of high grade gold mineralisation (+2g/t) within a much larger and broader gold system.
At Crow, significant wide, shallow zones of mineralisation continue to be intersected along strike from the previously reported 64m @ 13.4g/t Aufrom 141m.
This area at Crow includes numerous sub-parallel zones of mineralisation over a strike length of at least 500m. Mineralisation remains open at multiple localities.
“Extensional RC drilling in the west of Crow is encouraging and mineralisation remains open,” Mr Jardine said.
“The area further to the west of Crow is currently being tested with one of the two aircore rigs on site. The other aircore rig is testing Scooby and targets to the east of Brolga.
“Infill drilling at Crow continues to highlight higher grade lodes within the overall mineralised system including 44 metres @ 2.6g/t Au from 51 metres in HERC320. “Extensional drilling at Aquila continues to extend mineralisation to the west and downdip toward Falcon.”
