Zenith Minerals (ASX:ZNC) has obtained encouraging infill drill programme results at the Dulcie Far North Prospect within the company’s 100% owned Split Rocks Gold Project, located in the Southern Cross-Forrestania Greenstone Belt of Western Australia.
Highlights
▪ Dulcie Far North prospect now drilled on 40m centres over 400m strike length with four Reverse Circulation (RC) holes and 15 diamond (DDH) holes completed in March for an aggregate 2,514m.
▪ New drilling is encouraging, with significant widths of alteration (silica-biotite-pyrrhotite) observed in the new drill holes, consistent with high-grade gold mineralized intervals from Zenith’s previous drill programme that returned: 12m at 6.1g/t Au, 5m at 7.4g/t Au, 3m at 10.7g/t Au and 5m at 10.6g/t Au
▪ First assay results anticipated from the laboratory in early May 2023.
Drilling is following up previous high-grade gold intersections at Dulcie Far North including:
12m @6.1g/t Au from 108m in SRRC018, incl 5.0m @10.5g/t Au from 113m; 7.0m @7.8g/t Au from 90m in ZDRC090, incl 5.0m @10.6g/t Au from 91m; 8.0m @4.2g/t Au from 99m in ZDRC098, incl 3.0m @10.7g/t Au from 103m; 5.0m @7.4g/t Au from 47m in ZDRC095, and 9m @2.0g/t Au from 57m in ZDRC095.
Assay results are anticipated in May ahead of resource estimation work to be completed in June 2023.
“We are excited by the visual continuity of the mineralization observed in our recent drilling at Dulcie Far North, the alteration and observed thicknesses are consistent with our earlier high-grade gold intersections so we look forward to receiving the assay results in May,” Executive Chair, David Ledger, said.
