 Aldoro hits 50% higher REE and Strontium grade in new drill hole
Key Points
  • Hole DD005F intersected 525m of continuous REE, Strontium, Niobium and Molybdenum mineralization
  • Grades are ~50% higher than previous step-out hole DD005E
  • Significant shallow intercepts include 12m at 2.21% TREO, 6.37% SrCO3
Full Summary

Aldoro Resources Ltd (ASX: ARN) has received assay results for diamond drill hole DD005F at its Kameelburg Niobium and REE deposit in Namibia. The results confirm that DD005F has encountered 525 meters of continuous mineralization comprising Rare Earth Elements (REE), Strontium, Niobium and Molybdenum. Notably, the grades across the entire 525-meter interval are approximately 50% higher than the previously reported step-out hole DD005E. Key highlights include:- DD005F average grades across 525m: 1.20% TREO, 3.55% SrCO3, 0.18% Nb2O5 and 135ppm Mo- DD005E average grades across 603m: 0.80% TREO, 2.4% SrCO3, 0.15% Nb2O5 and 103ppm MoSignificant shallow intercepts in DD005F include:- 12m at 2.21% TREO, 6.37% SrCO3, 0.17% Nb2O5 and 150ppm Mo from surface- 7m at 2.13% TREO, 6.27% SrCO3, 0.20% Nb2O5 and 127ppm Mo from 29m- 3m at 2.60% TREO, 8.07% SrCO3, 0.23% Nb2O5 and 891ppm Mo from 52mThe company states the mineralization appears to be controlled by semi-massive to massive magnetite zones, crustal contaminations, and the incorporation of mafic fragments/xenoliths in the Beforsite carbonatite. The major rare earth mineral is Ancylite.The Phase II drilling program is ongoing, with 14 holes drilled so far across 6,495 meters. Additional assays are expected to be processed throughout April.

Outlook

Aldoro continues to build confidence and knowledge in the understanding of the Kameelburg mineralization system as it progresses the Phase II drilling program. The company remains focused on further delineating the scale and grade of the deposit, which remains open at depth.
