Talisman Mining Ltd (ASX: TLM) has appointed drilling services provider Resolution Drilling Pty Ltd to undertake a significant drilling programme commencing in January 2023 at the company’s Central Lachlan Copper-Gold Project in NSW.
Resolution Drilling Pty Ltd is a locally owned exploration drilling services provider based in Parkes, NSW, and is well experienced with ground conditions and landholders throughout Talisman’s tenure portfolio. With a range of specialized drilling equipment and access to local support services, Talisman looks forward to partnering with Resolution to successfully deliver this drilling programme.
The planned drill programme reportedly comprises approximately 8,000m of Reverse Circulation (RC) and 600m of diamond core drilling and has been designed to test the highest-priority geophysical anomalies previously identified by Talisman across four tenements, with the aim of identifying massive sulphide mineralization thought to be the source of conductive responses.
In addition to these maiden drilling programmes across eight AEM (conductivity anomaly) and two AGG (gravity anomaly) targets, Talisman has stated it has further work planned on its Kaolin Shaft polymetallic, and Elaine/Babinda copper prospects, with the overall programme expected to be by far the largest to be undertaken by Talisman since it first entered NSW.
Most NSW Government department approvals for the planned programme have been received, with the last few expected to be received by the end of 2022. Subject to weather conditions and landholder consent for access, the drill programme will commence in mid-January 2023.
