High grade gold results continue from Sandstone Gold Project
- Significant gold intersections from ongoing drilling at Lord Nelson, Havilah and Bull Oak deposits
- Drilling confirms continuity of thick, high-grade gold mineralization at Lord Nelson
- Drilling identifies new high-grade mineralized shoots at Havilah, open for further testing
Brightstar Resources has received results from a ~5,300m reverse circulation (RC) drilling program targeting extensional and infill resource drilling at the Lord Nelson, Havilah and Bull Oak deposits, which form part of the 1.5Moz @ 1.5g/t Au Sandstone Hub. Drilling at the Lord Nelson deposit returned multiple high-grade intercepts, including 32m @ 3.44g/t Au from 200m and 18m @ 2.50g/t Au from 236m, confirming the continuity of thick, high-grade mineralization within the conceptual $2,500 AUD/oz pit shell. At the Havilah deposit, a small 6-hole program identified a new high-grade mineralized shoot, open for further follow-up, with 3m @ 11.4g/t Au from 129m. Drilling at the Bull Oak deposit also intersected high-grade mineralization within a broader low-grade halo, including 19m @ 1.18g/t Au from 177m and 2m @ 8.93g/t Au from 112m. Brightstar's ongoing +130,000m CY25 drilling program continues, with further results expected in the coming months.
