Hillgrove Resources: Significant Copper-Gold Mineralisation at Kanmantoo Mine
- Significant Copper-Gold mineralisation confirmed at depth
- Deepest intersection recorded to date
- Ongoing drilling program to expand mineral system
Hillgrove Resources Limited has reported significant results from its surface drilling program at the Kanmantoo Copper Mine in South Australia. The program, which commenced in February, aimed to test the projected depth extensions of the Kavanagh mineralised zone. Assay results from the first five wedges confirm the continuation of the mineralisation at depth, with notable intersections including 24m @ 1.69% Cu + 0.47g/t Au from 816m downhole in KTDD248_W5. Hillgrove CEO, Bob Fulker, highlighted the potential for further growth within the Kavanagh system and the opportunity to extend the mine life. Drilling is ongoing with further depth extensions being tested.
The company remains committed to the programs that will enable it to extend the mine life and unlock the full value of Kanmantoo.
