DiscovEx Resources Limited provided an update to exploration activities at the Edjudina Project, located approximately 250km north-east of Kalgoorlie, WA. Following the definition of the Spartan anomaly through systematic soil sampling, DiscovEx has continued to refine this target through the completion of a 200 x 200m gravity survey. This survey was designed to provide greater clarity on the distribution of intrusive rocks and how they relate spatially to the location of Spartan, as well as providing additional information regarding the structural framework
in and around these intrusives. Results from this survey have been used to refine the proposed drill programme, which is expected to begin immediately. The aircore programme will test beneath the surface gold anomaly at Spartan with additional holes planned to test several other target areas. Together with the drill program, infill soil sampling will be completed at the Falcon Prospect, currently defined as a 2.6km long, +15ppb Au anomaly peaking at 48ppb Au. Following the identification of the Spartan anomaly and prior to the planning of the current phase 1 AC programme, Atlas Geophysics was engaged to complete a 200 x 200m gravity survey, centred on the Spartan anomaly. The survey was designed to provide detailed context around the geological setting of the prospect area, complementing the existing detailed magnetics. Interpretation of the geophysical information has confirmed the location of a large, intrusive body to the south of the anomaly as well as a smaller, potentially structurally displaced intrusive body to the west of the anomaly. Together with the elevated geological confidence, the gravity survey has also provided complimentary information around the presence of large-scale north-south structural breaks that appear to wrap around the younger intrusive body to the south. Current drilling, which began has been planned to test the extents of the +50ppb Au anomaly as well as the northern extension to the north-south structural trend. Drilling is anticipated to be completed in mid-September with results expected to be returned early in the next quarter.
