Bastion Minerals Limited (ASX: BMO) has provided an update on progress at its 100%-owned ICE, Mariner, and Harley copper projects in Canada.
Commenting on progress at Bastion’s high-grade copper projects, executive chairman, Mr Ross Landles, said, “The significant advancements at our ICE Copper Project and our well-structured 2025 work programmes for the Mariner and Harley projects reflect our commitment to unlocking value for our shareholders.”
At ICE, substantial progress towards a maiden JORC mineral resource estimate (MRE) by an independent resource consultancy has been made, with completion imminent.
The company has also completed a metallurgical review of historical test work completed by an independent consultant with encouraging outcomes and recommendations for further work, a new test-work programme on existing drill-core samples will commence shortly.
The 2025 ICE work programme will include a review of existing geophysical survey data and targets, a mineralogical and metallurgical test work programme on existing core samples, and drilling for resource extensions and testing new geophysical and geochemical targets.
In the NWT, at Mariner, this year Bastion will review existing geophysical datasets, including airborne electromagnetics (EM) and magnetics to assist targeting. Works will also include geological mapping, soil and rock-chip sampling across known mineralization and new zones.
At Harley, the company is planning airborne geophysical surveys to include EM and magnetics to target potential extensions to known mineralization and assist in identification of possible new zones of mineralization. Geological mapping, soil sampling, and rock-chip sampling across known mineralization and potential extensions will be conducted.
