Highlights:
- RC drilling has commenced at both the Diorite East and Diorite North prospects
- At least 12 holes for 1,230 metres will be drilled in the coming weeks
- Drilling at Diorite East to test a new significant ~460m target zone that has been recently discovered with a peak 1m @ 2.19 g/t Au (from 8m DIRC006) (ASX announcement
- Diorite East shares structural and geological similarities to Mt Stirling-Viserion structural setting in that both are NW-SE shear zones situated sub-parallel to the regional significant Ursus Fault
- Drilling at Diorite North to follow up on a recent intercept of 1m @ 4.66 g/t Au (from 109m DIRC014) obtained from beneath the historical "
- Torian's Diorite block hosts numerous historical mines and workings including the historic 73 g/t Au Diorite King mine
- Drilling is expected to last for 2 weeks with results to follow approximately one month later

Torian's Executive Director Mr
We are very excited for this drilling campaign to get underway, so that we can continue to learn more about this exciting project as we work towards making a significant discovery.
We are also eagerly awaiting further drilling results from our ongoing drilling at Mt Stirling, which should be received withing the next couple of weeks.
We look forward to keeping the market updated on our progress.
At Diorite East, drilling will follow up on a recently discovered significant ~460m target zone with a peak 1m @ 2.19 g/t Au (from 8m DIRC006); and a further intercept ~350m SE of 1m @ 0.96 g/t Au (from 80m DIRC009) (ASX release
Diorite East shares structural and geological similarities to Mt Stirling-Viserion structural setting in that both are NW-SE shear zones situated sub-parallel to the regional significant Ursus Fault.
The current campaign will test the potential for mineralisation to significantly extend between and beyond reported pierce points as well as immediate strike extension and down-dip continuity of mineralisation along interpreted shallow target zone.
At Diorite North drilling will test the strike extensions and explore the continuity and plunge of gold mineralisation to depth with the recently discovered intercept of 1m @ 4.66 g/t Au (from 109m DIRC014) obtained beneath the historical "
Additionally recent near surface intercepts have confirmed the mineralisation occurrence demonstrated by rock-chips DIR066 & DIR067 returning values of 9.04 g/t Au & 6.09 g/t Au respectively (reported ASX
In addition to RC drilling, target generation work continues throughout the
