Maximus returns pleasing results at Narndee

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Maximus Resources (ASX: MXR) has received further assay results a recently completed drilling campaign on the company’s Narndee poly-metallic project located northeast of Perth in the Murchison region of Western Australia.

Maximus said 12 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill holes were completed across two mineralised targets, to follow-up previous drilling on the E59/908 tenement in the south of the Narndee project.

The program was designed to test new targets Maximus had identified during an Induced Polarization (IP) survey earlier in the year on the tenement, in addition to testing previously identified targets.

Maximus said the results have confirmed the existence of at least two poly-metallic structures.

The company went on to say these structures appear to be separated by fault structures, as it had identified in the initial investigation phase in 2011.

The new assay results include:

1 metre at 3.83 per cent copper from 61m;

1m at 1.63 per cent zinc from 74m; and

10m intersection containing 10m at 0.46 per cent copper, including 1m at 1.2 per cent copper – plus 2m at 0.35 per cent zinc plus 3m at 0.2 per cent lead.

“The recent drilling also confirmed the earlier interpretation that mineralisation is associated with fault structures with major accumulations of mineralisation at the intersections of these fault structures,” Maximus Resources said in its ASX announcement.

“Maximus is now planning a further ground Electromagnetic (EM) investigation to determine the extent of the system followed up by additional drilling to continue to test the lateral and depth extent of these new poly-metallic systems.”
