Integra identifies gold trend near Daisy Milano

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Western-Australi-based gold producer Integra Mining has received results from an initial RC drilling campaign it conducted throughout November and December 2011 at the company’s Mt Monger Reefs prospect.

The Mt Monger prospect is located 13 kilometres northwest of Integra’s Randalls gold processing facility.

The RC drilling was carried out to test anomalous gold results the company achieved during previous aircore drilling, which included 3 metres at 77.66 grams per tonne gold.

Results from the recent RC drilling included:

–    5 metres at 2.84 grams per tonne gold; and

–    4m at 2.12 g/t gold.

Integra said the newly identified gold mineralisation appears to be a similar style to that being mined at the neighbouring Daisy Milano Mine of Silver Lake Resources.

The company has interpreted the mineralisation to be hosted in splays from the Goddard Fault identifying it to occur along two north-northwest trends, one of which may continue up to 180 metres south-southeast from previous RAB hole drilling.

This previous drilling returned 4m composite at 984.67g/t gold re-sampled at 3m at 77.66g/t gold including 1m at 229.59 g/t gold.

“The north-northwest trending gold anomalies remain open at depth and are currently unconstrained along strike,” Integra Mining said in its ASX announcement.

“Additional RC drilling is planned and is due to commence shortly to further test the depth and strike extent of gold mineralisation at the Mt Monger Reefs.”
