I could add (I will coz I've got nothing better to do) that as well as the gabbro targets there is the secondary quartz porphyry target at Ema which has diamond drilling assay results due (after the RC assays I think). Although the results from the limited trench sampling weren't huge (looks like they failed to snag a nugget), they're encouraging and it's a massive target (500m x 250m):
Ema Channel Sampling Programme
Prior to commencing the diamond drilling programme BBX conducted two reconnaissance channel samples, 2m in length, within a 500m x 250m area totally disturbed by garimpeiro activity dating back to the 1980´s, known as Ema 3 (fig. 3). These workings are located in a deep erosional feature at the base of the weathering profile within saprolite comprising kaolin and rounded glassy quartz grains. The channel samples were analysed by metallic screen fire assay as pan concentration had revealed the presence of minor coarse gold. The bulk of the gold grains identified in the analytical process were, however fine to ultrafine.
Results were 2m @ 0.48g/t and 2m @ 1.95g/t (incl. 1m @ 3.44g/t) for EMCN001 and 002, respectively.
The presence of gold mineralisation in this material has previously been referred to in announcements of June 10, 2015 and October 26, 2017. This zone, at the base of weathering, has been tested in all seven diamond holes drilled to date and represents a separate target to the fresh gabbro from which gold has previously been extracted from surface bulk samples.
