Diamond Drilling Confirms Further High-Grade At Hopes Hill
- Central Zone: 28.7m @ 3.8 g/t Au including 4.5m @ 20.9 g/t Au
- Southern Zone: 11.0m @ 2.4 g/t Au including 3.0m @ 5.1 g/t Au
- Second diamond rig fast-tracked to site, bringing total to 4 rigs
Golden Horse Minerals has reported significant new high-grade gold intersections from diamond drilling at the Hopes Hill project in Western Australia. In the Central Zone, a diamond hole (GHHHRCD0068) intersected 28.7m @ 3.8 g/t Au from 192m, including 4.5m @ 20.9 g/t Au, within a broader 86m @ 1.6 g/t Au interval. This confirms the previous wide high-grade reverse circulation (RC) drill results in the Central Zone. In the Southern Zone, hole GHHHRC0092 intersected 11.0m @ 2.4 g/t Au from 154m, including 3.0m @ 5.1 g/t Au, demonstrating the strong southerly plunge of the mineralization. The company has now fast-tracked a second diamond rig to site, bringing the total drilling capacity to four rigs (2 diamond, 2 RC). One of the RC rigs will be used to test exploration targets 500m south-east of the historic Hopes Hill pit. The results continue to strengthen the company's confidence that Hopes Hill can deliver significant, high-grade gold resources as the exploration program advances.
The company is rapidly building a clearer picture of the +1.3km mineralized corridor at Hopes Hill, with the exploration strategy aimed at expanding the footprint of the project while refining the geological model to support future development studies.
