Terrain Minerals Limited (ASX: TMX) has completed first phase of drilling, focussing on the pegmatites at the Paradise City prospect (targeting multiple pegmatites) at the company’s 100% owned Smokebush Project, located within the Yalgoo mineral field in Western Australia
• Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling at Paradise City, successfully intersected multiple zones of pegmatites within 10 of 11 holes, with assays due within six weeks.
• Phase 2 pegmatite drill programme (targeting multiple pegmatites at Hurley and Monza) is scheduled to commence before the end of June.
• Drill testing of the IP anomalies, targeting interpreted repetitions of the neighbouring Minjar style gold mineralization, is scheduled to commence as part of the Phase 2 drilling campaign.
• Detailed soil sampling programme testing the southern extension of the copper-in-soil anomaly at Larins Lane is due to commence by mid-July.

Gold – IP Survey Drilling Update
Terrain’s geological team has commenced ground activities in preparation of drilling following the completion of the induced polarization (IP) survey. Drilling is expected to commence late June 2023, as part of the Phase 2 drilling programme, which will also be testing multiple pegmatites in the Hurley and Monza areas or Lithium.
Gold – Larin’s Lane Update
Highly successful Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soils sampling results from Larin’s Lane has identified two new targets and one large gold anomaly – ~700m by ~250m and an “Open” Copper with associated Nickel Anomaly ~600m by ~350m open towards the Southeast. A nine sq. km extension programme is due to commence in mid-July 2023.
The new Anomalies are within similar geological setting to Golden Grove and planning for drill testing of the Gold and Copper/Ni targets is under way once the anomalies boundaries have been defined.
