STRONG COPPER INTERSECTIONS OVER 2.5KM STRIKE LENGTH AT YAMAMILLA PROJECT, NORTH QUEENSLAND
Maiden drilling returns intersections of up to 3.9% Cu within broader mineralised zones
Key Points:-
Initial drilling at Yamamilla intersects high-grade zones of chalcopyrite within broader 7-11m wide zones of disseminated copper-gold mineralisation, with results including: - 4m @ 3.9% Cu within a broader intersection of 7m @ 2.4% Cu in YMRC004; and - 2m @ 2.5% Cu within a broader intersection of 11m @ 1.2% Cu in YMRC003.
Mineralisation intersected in the predicted structural and geophysical location below a 2.5km strike length of anomalous soil sampling results and historic workings within the broader 6km long Yamamilla-Portal Creek trend.
The intersections feature a central core of high-grade copper sulphide mineralisation within broader stringer sulphide zones.
• Drilling intersections correspond with modelled airborne EM plates with further down-hole EM and drilling planned, elevating Yamamilla as a priority focus for exploration.
