| ABSTRACT: | Managing Director Richard Hyde commented: “Drilling M1 South has intercepted strong visible gold in deep drilling, while infill drilling shows excellent continuity of high grade gold. “M5 has returned strong results from within the proposed open pit area and from depth. “The Company will release an updated resource estimate and significantly improved Feasibility Study incorporating open pit and underground mine schedules next month.” Today’s results include some infill drilling around the base of the proposed open pit at 120m vertical as well as step out and down drilling at more than 550m vertical. Infill drilling has again confirmed the continuity of high grade mineralisation with TAN18-DD206 returning high grade from three zones including 8m at 12.89 g/t Au from 126m, 14.5m at 27.93 g/t Au from 142.5m including 3m at 64.9 g/t Au and 3.5m at 52.8 g/t Au, and 1.5m at 22.1 g/t Au from 170.5m. High grade has also been returned from TAN18-DD209 at approximately 350m vertical with 4m at 25.72 g/t Au from 440.5m down hole including 0.5m at 124 g/t Au and 14m at 7.82 g/t Au from 482m including 0.5m at 57.9 g/t Au. Step out and down drilling in TAN18-DD214A has intercepted four zones of visible gold approximately 20m along strike from TAN18-189 which returned 11m at 10.5 g/t from 654 and 6m at 24.4 g/t Au from 675m (ASX/TSXV 23/04/18). A potential new zone of very strong visible gold mineralisation has been intercepted at 578.4m down hole, some 40m above the first expected zone of high-grade mineralisation at 619m (See photos 1 and 2). Additional visible gold was intercepted at 624.2m and 639.5m down hole. Logging and cutting of TAN18-DD214A is in progress. Results are expected in June and will not be included in the resource estimation due for release in June 2018. Results demonstrate that the underground mine life at M1 South will be extended beyond what will be outlined in the upcoming Feasibility Study and that drilling at depth remains a high priority in the Company’s exploration strategy. | |
