Monger Gold Limited (ASX: MMG) has commenced a Diamond Drilling campaign at the Providence prospect at Monger North in the Eastern Goldfields Province of Western Australia.
The company has also released details one metre sample results from home 22MNRC017 of 10m @ 2.69g/t from 89m which compare favourably with four metre composites of 12m @ 2.19g/t.
Chairman, Peretz Schapiro, said these samples act as QA/QC indicators that separate sampling of both four metre composites and one metre samples is being performed appropriately without bias.
Combined with an intercept down-hole previously announced of 3m @ 2.49g/t, there is a larger intercept of 17m @ 2.04g/t from 89m (4m of internal waste.
“This intercept announced today is the broadest that we have found to date at a moderate gold grade open towards the NW at depth,” Mr Schapiro said.
“We are hopeful that further intercepts with similar widths are discovered at Providence as it would suggests that the mineralisation found to date may be more conducive to open pit extraction.
“Diamond drilling is now underway at the Providence Prospect to determine the structure of the deposit as we seek to find further extensions to this system. We look forward to announcing the results of this drilling in the coming weeks.”
Monger North is located in the the Achaean Norseman-Wiluna Greenstone Belt, 30km south-east of Kalgoorlie Boulder.
