Gibb River Diamonds eye on drilling!
Gibb
River Diamonds announces that the maiden drilling program at the high grade
Edjudina Gold Project (GIB with Option to Purchase 100%) will commence in the
first week of September. A contract with Top Drive Drillers Australia has been
signed to provide drilling services to the Company. A Program of Works
authorisation has been received from the WA Mines Department which permits the
Company to undertake this drilling work and a number of subsequent drill
programs.
The
maiden aircore drilling program will consist of a minimum of 2,000 metres of
aircore drilling. It will aim to test a number of targets which have been
generated by the Company using historic geological data, these include, 1: Areas
of previous mining activity which include historical shafts and workings as
evidenced in GIB’s field program.
2: Areas covered by alluvium or windblown sand along strike from previous workings which have not been explored or tested, 3: Areas with evidence of previous exploration or prospecting activity, 4: Conceptual targets for new undiscovered areas of mineralisation.
The Edjudina Goldfield has been mined and explored since the 1890’s and some of the historic data from this work has been used as a prospectivity tool by GIB for drill hole targeting. None of this data complies with the JORC 2012 Code and there are question marks relating to the spatial accuracy of much of the data; as such this data is not reportable at this time.
