True North Copper Limited (ASX: TNC) has sighted copper mineralization in a two hole resource extension diamond drilling programme near its Great Australia Resource, located on TNC’s 100% owned Cloncurry Project in Queensland, Australia.
Drilling across both holes (GAD014 and GAD015) encountered large zones of visible copper sulphide mineralization of the Great Australia Resource dipping towards the Greater Australian Target area.
Highlights
- Large visible copper sulphide zones intercepted from two diamond drill holes including: GAD014 encountered approximately 180m of consistent mineralization and multiple zones of chalcopyrite mineralization and GAD015 encountered multiple zones of chalcopyrite mineralization.
- Initial two-hole programme (820m) targeted extensions to the existing Great Australia Resource and potential continuity to the Greater Australian Target.
- Samples have been delivered to ALS Global Laboratory for analysis and results are pending. Comment
“Our recent Great Australia Resource drilling programme was undertaken to help us understand how we would undertake potential extension of the Great Australia Resource towards the Greater Australian Target. So far, drilling confirms our belief mineralization continues and the Greater Australian Target area should be a high priority,” Managing Director, Marty Costello, said.
“We have recently completed an Induced Polarization (IP) survey of the Greater Australian Target area. We believe IP is an effective tool for targeting potential copper mineralization. We remain excited about the exploration potential at the Great Australia Resource especially considering that historical drilling has been limited and shallow.
“Once we have fully interpreted the drilling results, after we receive the laboratory assays, we will define our next steps.”
