Great Boulder Resources (ASX: GBR) is preparing to recommence drilling at the Side Well Gold Project in Western Australia.
RC drilling will kick-off at Mulga Bill as part of a 5,000m programme designed to test extensions to high-grade zones along the six km Mulga Bill – Loaded Dog corridor.
In addition, the company will undertake its first round of RC holes to test primary gold mineralisation over the defined 500m of strike at the Ironbark Prospect located 1.5km east of Mulga Bill.
The programme is expected to take approximately four weeks to complete. During this time the 3D IP survey will also be completed and processed, and the diamond rig will return to Mulga Bill to complete the program.
Managing Director, Andrew Paterson, said both programmes were interrupted by adverse weather conditions in late March.
“Our Mulga Bill exploration programme is continuing at full speed with the commencement of our first RC drill programme for 2022.
“We are well advanced and funded to execute our plans to accelerate drilling later this quarter as we move towards an Exploration Target followed by an initial Mineral Resource Estimate at Side Well.
“The additional structural data from the diamond drilling program plus the RC data we gain from this program will be the next step in building our understanding of Mulga Bill.
“The team is looking forward to seeing the full 3D inversion model of chargeability anomalies associated with sulphide once the IP survey is complete, as it will provide our first three-dimensional model of sulphide zones that will be subject to further drilling.”
