Aircore Drilling Completed at Edjudina Range Gold Discovery
- Solstice has completed a 20-hole aircore drilling program at the Edjudina Range gold discovery
- Drilling aimed to further delineate and extend a >1km long zone of gold mineralisation
- Edjudina Range is one of three significant prospects on the same geological trend scheduled for further RC drilling
Solstice Minerals has successfully completed a further 20-hole aircore drilling program at the emerging Edjudina Range gold discovery in Western Australia, with assay results expected in the coming weeks. The drilling aimed to further delineate and extend a >1km long zone of gold mineralisation associated with quartz veins, bedrock alteration and arsenic pathfinder anomalism. Edjudina Range is a great example of the opportunities present in untested 'under-cover' parts of the Company's extensive Yarri Project landholdings in the Eastern Goldfields, with results from 1m resampling of recent composite intercepts including 16m @ 1.13g/t Au, 2m @ 5.16g/t Au, 2m @ 3.17g/t Au to end of hole, 4m @ 1.81g/t Au, and 4m @ 1.54g/t Au. The results from the current aircore program will inform the design of the next round of RC drilling at this exciting new gold system. Edjudina Range is one of three significant prospects on the same geological trend that are scheduled for further RC drilling in the coming weeks, including the advanced Bluetooth Prospect and the Statesman Well Prospect. Significant news flow can be expected over the coming months as the RC rig is remobilised, and further results are returned from the laboratory.
Solstice now has three 'live' gold prospects under evaluation in the same patch of geology, and the financial capacity to progress all its key prospects toward Mineral Resources. Follow-up RC drilling is imminent at Edjudina Range and will dovetail into RC drilling of infill and plunge targets at the advanced Bluetooth and Statesman Well Prospects. All three prospects offer significant opportunities to define commercial Resource ounces at shallow depths.
