Nanadie High-Grade Copper-Gold Zones Extend Over 700m Deep
Solstice Minerals Ltd
Key points
- Deep drilling at Nanadie extends high-grade copper-gold zones over 700m deep
- Multiple high-grade intercepts confirm significant mineralisation
- Assays closely match visual sulphide mineralisation, supporting ongoing exploration
Full summary
Solstice Minerals Ltd has announced outstanding results from its Nanadie Copper-Gold Project in Western Australia, with diamond drillhole NANRCD005 extending high-grade copper-gold zones more than 700m below surface. The combined intercept of 722.3m @ 0.44% Cu, 0.13g/t Au includes multiple high-grade zones, such as 28m @ 1.31% Cu, 0.30g/t Au and 43.3m @ 0.91% Cu, 0.35g/t Au. These results extend the mineralisation well beyond the current Mineral Resource Estimate boundary, demonstrating the potential for significant expansion. The high-grade zones are comparable to those in globally significant copper systems, and the assays closely match visual sulphide mineralisation, providing confidence in ongoing exploration efforts.
Outlook
The company plans to accelerate drilling with multiple rigs operating through the balance of the year, aiming to expand the mineralised system and upgrade the Mineral Resource Estimate.
