Copper Sulphides Confirmed in Chikundo RC Drilling
Key points
- Chalcopyrite confirmed in two of the first three RC holes
- Two principal chalcopyrite-bearing intervals identified
- Three of nine priority RC holes complete, with plans for diamond drilling extensions
Full summary
Evolution Energy Minerals has confirmed the presence of chalcopyrite, a copper sulphide mineral, in initial reverse circulation (RC) drilling at its Chikundo Copper Project in southern Tanzania. The drilling is testing potential copper mineralisation associated with the Chikundo geochemical anomaly. Chalcopyrite has been identified in two of the first three RC holes, providing evidence of copper sulphide mineralisation at depth. The company plans to continue drilling and potentially extend selected holes with diamond drilling to reach a target depth of 200m. Laboratory assays for copper grades are expected up to three months after sample dispatch.
Outlook
The company plans to continue drilling and potentially extend selected holes with diamond drilling to reach a target depth of 200m. Laboratory assays for copper grades are expected up to three months after sample dispatch.
