Kalgoorlie Gold Mining Limited announced RC drilling at the Bulong Taurus gold project 35km east of Kalgoorlie continues. The current RC drill program is proceeding on schedule: 12 drill holes have been completed at La Mascotte prospect, extending the strike extent of the drill tested area to over 500 m. This will test potential northern and southern extensions to daylighting gold mineralisation. La Mascotte contains numerous and extensive shallow gold intercepts from surface, and potential for an initial JORC resource is under investigation.

3 drill holes have been completed at Turnpike prospect, comprising first-pass testing near and along strike from historic high grade results. 2 drill holes have been completed at Bennet Dam in first pass testing of outcropping, gold-anomalous quartz veining located 2km to the east of La Mascotte. Drilling has also commenced on 16 holes at Great Ophir to test new ideas on controls on gold mineralisation.

In addition to the RC drill program, a concurrent auger drill program comprising 400 shallow holes was completed last week. The auger program is designed to provide initial sub-surface geochemical data in unexplored parts of the Bulong Taurus project area. Coherent clusters of low-level (i.e., greater than 0.04g/t or 40ppb Au) results could prompt follow-up investigation comprising costeans, aircore, or RC drilling.

The area targeted by this auger program is located east and southeast of La Mascotte.
