Rox Resources Commences Drilling at Fisher East

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Rox Resources (ASX: RXL) has commenced a drilling program on the company’s Fisher East nickel sulphide project in Western Australia.

Rox Resources explained the Fisher East drilling started after the completion of an aircore drilling program at the Mt Fisher gold project by Rox’s farm-in partner Doray Minerals (ASZ: DRM) targeting structural positions for gold mineralisation.

Assay results for this drilling are expected in four to six weeks.

The drilling program commenced on the Fisher East nickel sulphide project consists 1,800m of RC and a further 3,350m of diamond drilling expected to commence in early May.

All drilling is expected to be completed by mid-June.

“We are excited about the high quality drill targets at Fisher East and we will report the assay results as they come in,” Rox Resources managing director Ian Mulholland said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.

“Like zinc a few years ago, nickel is now predicted to undergo a significant price rise within two to three years, which will make nickel sulphide projects like Fisher East extremely attractive.”
