Iceni Gold Limited (ASX: ICL) has provided an exploration update on the commencement of drilling at highly prospective targets within the 14 Mile Well Project in Western Australia.
Iceni Gold is a Perth based exploration company that operates the 14 Mile Well Gold Project in the Laverton Greenstone Belt. Iceni is searching for the three styles of gold mineralization that are known to exist within the Laverton-Leonora District, as well as nickel and lithium.
“Preparations have been underway in recent weeks for the upcoming (reverse circulation) RC drilling programme and include heritage surveys, establishing site access and drill pads,” commented general manager exploration David Nixon.
“The drilling rig will mobilize to site this week and commence the drilling programme, testing targets in the Claypan, Breakaway, and Monument target areas. The geological team are excited to commence drilling and test the anomalous targets.”
Highlights include access and drill pads being established on site for the commencement of drilling. The initial targets planned to be tested include the Breakaway Well gold anomaly, Monument lithium anomaly, the Monument North shear zone hosted gold anomaly, and the Intrusion related gold anomaly at Claypan.
RC drilling programmes will also continue with drilling at Guyer North, Guyer North-West and a number of sites within the Everleigh Well target area, including the Embayment, High-Grade Vein, and Christmas Gift targets.
Preparations are complete for the commencement of the initial phase of the 10,000m Stage 3 drilling programme and will continue in 2024 after the Christmas break, following the initial assay results.
