Kin Mining NL announced further strong RC drilling results which point to both an increase and an upgrade in Resources at its Leonora Gold Project in WA. The results of this program, which comprised infill and extensional drilling at the Mertondale 3-4 deposit, will be incorporated into the Project Definitive Feasibility Study which is underway. The drilling was designed to target mineralisation within the current pit design as outlined in the Pre-Feasibility Study, as well as high-grade extensions below and adjacent to the current pit design. The key objective was to convert Inferred Mineral Resources contained in the open pit mining plan to the higher confidence Indicated Mineral Resource category as part of the Feasibility Study. The Mertondale 3-4 open pit historically produced an estimated 179,300oz of gold from 1.30Mt of ore at a recovered grade of 4.3 g/t Au. The mine plan includes an extension or cutback to the south of this historical pit. The recent drilling targeted this southern pit extension. The Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program drilled to date comprised a total of 4,528m (MT16RC002-MT16RC038), results are presented for 25 holes (MT16RC002-MT16RC026). Robust wide zones of shallow mineralisation within the pit design include: 21m at 1.2 g/t Au from 29m including 5m at 3.0 g/t Au (MT16RC017); 16m at 2.5 g/t Au from 30m including 9m at 3.0 g/t Au (MT16RC021); 9m at 2.1 g/t Au from 39m including 2m at 4.7 g/t Au (MT16RC024). Selected drill holes were extended below and drilled adjacent to the current open pit design in order to intersect the felsic porphyry, which is the main host of gold mineralisation at Mertondale 3-4 at depth. Multiple holes successfully intersected the gold-hosting porphyry outside the current mine plan. The latest results have extended the strike length of the porphyry, which is now able to be traced 300m along strike and is open at depth. The gold-hosting porphyry warrants further analysis for potential development by underground mining methods. Drilling to date has confirmed grade continuity within the open pit designs and the current structural interpretation of the mineralisation.
