 New High-Grade Zone Emerges at Nanadie Copper-Gold Project
Key Points
  • New high-grade zone intersected in Phase 1 RC drilling
  • Key results include 106m @ 0.86% Cu, 0.23g/t Au from 201m, including 55m @ 1.07% Cu, 0.26g/t Au
  • Assays pending for 8 additional holes, planning for Phase 2 drilling underway
Full Summary

Solstice Minerals has reported assay results from two further holes (NANRC018 and NANRC019) from its recent 23-hole (6,030m) Phase 1 mineral resource expansion drilling program at the 100%-owned Nanadie Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia. The new drilling has intersected a new high-grade zone, with NANRC018 returning 106m @ 0.86% Cu, 0.23g/t Au from 201m, including 55m @ 1.07% Cu, 0.26g/t Au from 252m. This includes higher-grade intervals of 24m @ 1.42% Cu, 0.34g/t Au, 11.4g/t Ag and 11m @ 1.53% Cu, 0.35g/t Au, 5.6g/t Ag. NANRC019 also returned multiple significant copper-gold intercepts, including 11m @ 0.93% Cu, 0.18g/t Au and 26m @ 0.42% Cu, 0.15g/t Au. The new high-grade results, combined with the previously reported outstanding intercepts in the southern part of the deposit, demonstrate the strong potential to materially expand the current 40.4Mt mineral resource estimate. Solstice is now planning a Phase 2 RC and diamond drilling program to follow up on the high-grade open intercepts and test depth extensions and other targets along the deposit.

Outlook

Solstice is planning a Phase 2 RC and diamond drilling program to follow up on the high-grade open intercepts and test depth extensions and other targets along the Nanadie deposit. The company looks forward to reporting the balance of the Phase 1 drilling results and immediate follow-up plans.
