| ABSTRACT: | Further to its announcement of 5 October 2016, Windward Resources Ltd (ASX: WIN) advises that it has completed and received all assay results from the 1,500m Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at the Brookman gold prospect, located on its Fraser Range North tenements in WA (see Figure 1). A total of five RC drill holes were completed on variable drill spacings ranging from 540m to 2,200m and covering a 5km strike of the Brookman gold anomaly, which extends for approximately 7km (see Figure 2). Drilling returned a maximum assay result of of 1m @ 1.02 g/t gold (16BKRC001) from 212m down-hole (see Table 1). The program was designed to test at depth for gold mineralisation which had been identified from earlier, shallower drilling. Previous drilling (aircore, RAB and RC) had identified multiple, stacked weakly mineralised horizons dipping shallowly to the south-east. The anomalous elemental suite identified (Au, Bi,Te,S, Cu-Mo) is similar to that more commonly recognised within Archaean Terranes. The drilling was aimed at testing these structures at depth (approximately 260m below surface), well below weathering and any possible supergene enrichment. The bedrock lithology intersected was consistent throughout, comprising a biotite/muscovite/garnet bearing schist (regional metasediment). Quartz veining was common throughout, associated with a slight increase of disseminated pyrite which was noted within restricted intervals (2-6m) throughout the drilling. The southernmost hole 16BKRC005 was noticably lacking in garnet. The drilling has demonstrated that the grade and /or width of the auriferous horizons do not increase at depth. Based on the outcomes of this drilling it can be assumed that there has been a component of supergene upgrading of these horizons (planes) closer to the surface. No further drilling is planned at the Brookman prospect at this stage. | |
