Diamond Drilling to Test New Gold Targets at Thylacine
- Diamond drilling to test the deeper part of the Thylacine gold system and new targets
- Sub-Audio Magnetics (SAM) survey to commence over the Thylacine and Tysons prospects
- Extensive airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys underway at Leinster South and Pepperill Hill
Metal Hawk Limited is pleased to provide an update on its 100% owned Leinster South Project, located in the Agnew-Lawlers region, Western Australia. Exploration activities are progressing across key prospect areas with multiple geophysical and geochemical surveys continuing to develop new gold targets for drilling. Preparations are advanced for diamond drilling to commence shortly, testing a number of new priority targets at the deeper part of the Thylacine gold system. The Company has recently completed detailed ground magnetic surveys over the Thylacine and Tysons prospects, which have helped refine the initial diamond drill targets at Thylacine. The planned diamond drilling campaign at Thylacine is targeting thicker zones of gold mineralisation particularly in the deeper part of the system, testing a number of structural and geophysical features. A high-resolution UAV-assisted Sub-Audio Magnetics (SAM) survey is also scheduled for late October, planned to cover the broader Thylacine and Tysons prospect areas. The aim of the SAM survey is to identify structural trends or zones of conductivity indicative of alteration and/or shearing, features commonly associated with gold mineralisation in the region. An extensive 3,877-line km aeromagnetic survey is also underway over the northern part of Leinster South and a large portion of the Pepperill Hill project area, which will provide detailed magnetics data to guide and fast-track regional exploration.
Metal Hawk is continuing exploration on the project tenements, with plans for additional geochemical and geophysical surveys, and further drilling which may include diamond and/or RC drilling.
