Altair Minerals Announces Geochemical Validation at SOKO
- Auger drilling at SOKO confirms significant gold enrichment beneath soil anomalies
- North Peters relogging identifies a regional structurally controlled system
- Diamond drilling at North Peters to commence post-wet season
- Expansion of field operations at SOKO to support geochemical programs
Altair Minerals Limited has announced significant geochemical results from its South Oko (SOKO) and North Peters (NP) projects. Auger drilling at SOKO has validated the significance of the W1 soil anomaly, demonstrating gold enrichment directly beneath the soil cover. This validates the presence of a proximal underlying mineralisation source. At North Peters, relogging and remodelling of historic data have identified a regional structurally controlled system, highlighting a compelling target for further exploration. Diamond drilling at North Peters is expected to commence immediately following the wet season. Altair continues to expand its field operations at SOKO, with two additional camps established to support regional sampling and geochemical programs.
Diamond drilling at North Peters to commence post-wet season
Altair Minerals is optimistic about the exploration potential at SOKO and North Peters, with plans to expand drilling programs and develop additional drill targets.
