Breaker Resources encounters further shallow high-grades at Bambora

/in /by

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Breaker Resources (ASX: BRB) released further shallow, high-grade gold intersections achieved during ongoing infill and extensional reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Bombora gold discovery, part of the company’s 100 per cent-owned Lake Roe project east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.

Breaker Resources explained the infill RC drilling at Bombora is part of an ongoing program to assess the geometry, grade characteristics and extent of the gold mineralisation ahead of more detailed resource delineation drilling.

The new RC drill holes at Bombora comprise 24 holes (BBRC0174 to 0183, BBRC0230 to 0240, BBRC0241 to 0242 and BBRC0245) with many of the results based on preliminary four metre composite samples (1m sample results pending).

Results include:


BBRC0176
12 metres at 2.46 grams per tonne gold from 40m, including 5m at 5.37g/t gold, including 2m at 9.46g/t gold;


BBRC0183
11m at 7.77g/t gold from 44m, including 6m at 13.67g/t gold, including 2m at 37.99g/t gold;


BBRC0231
28m at 3.56g/t gold from 124m, 8m at 11.54g/t gold, including 4m at 20.98g/t gold;


BBRC0237
12m at 2.2g/t gold from 200m, including 4m at 5.74g/t gold;


BBRC0240
6m at 4.37g/t gold from 43m;


BBRC0241
4m at 5.3g/t gold from 88m, including 1m at 14.25g/t gold;


BBRC0242
3m at 5.99g/t gold from 58m, including 2m at 8.52g/t gold, including 1m at 15.97g/t gold; and


BBRC0245
4m at 3.39g/t gold from 66m.

Breaker Resources said the shallow, high-grade results continue to support the mining potential of the Bombora discovery.

The results indicate good continuity, and have identified several new gold intercepts that suggest several north-plunging lodes that may continue at depth.

“The infill drilling is identifying good continuity due to the close-spaced nature of the drilling, and is seeing more gold in general as we drill close to gold intersections that were previously ‘floating in space’ due to the wide-spaced nature of the earlier drilling,” Breaker Resources executive chairman Tom Sanders said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.

“We are also seeing two gold-mineralised orientations and preliminary indications of a third that has genuine potential to increase the ounces per vertical metre, further boosting the mining potential.

“Our understanding is progressing in response to the increase in drill density.”
