| ABSTRACT: | Thomson Resources is pleased to announce drilling results from its fifth round of drilling at the Bygoo tin project near the old Ardlethan tin mine, NSW. Eight holes were drilled in all for a total of 1098m. The drilling took place in July 2017 and tested targets at Bygoo North and South as well as some other historic workings between these two. Drilling at the main prospect of Bygoo North has unearthed a possible new greisen zone located 50m to the north of the historic Dumbrells pit. This new position has prompted a reinterpretation of the greisen zones as a multiple system akin to a stockwork (Figure 1). The new intersection of 8m at 1.2% Sn from 16m depth in BNRC38 is quite shallow and occurs at the Ardlethan Granite upper contact. Potentially this means it could be part of a “contact” greisen or alternatively a new steeply dipping greisen – both types occur to the south of Dumbrells pit (Figure 2). The next drilling program will target this zone as a priority. The Bygoo South prospect is at the site of a historic underground mine (“Smiths”), 400m south of the Bygoo North area, which operated between 1932 and 1946 for a reported production of just over 10,000 tonnes of ore at 0.8% Sn (Department of Mines Mine Record No. 20). | |
