Breaker Resources hits big gold between Bombora and Bombora North

/in /by

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Breaker Resources (ASX: BRB) has hit shallow, high-grade gold mineralisation with reconnaissance reverse circulation (RC) drilling between the Bombora and Bombora North discoveries at the company’s Lake Roe project, east of Kalgoorlie.

According to Breaker Resources the objective of the RC drilling, which is still underway, is to test a 1.2 kilometre gap between the Bombora and Bombora North gold discoveries on 200m-spaced drill lines to establish a continuous 2.2km zone of gold mineralisation.

Assay results have been received for the initial three drill lines covering a 600m zone directly north of the Bombora discovery (17 drill holes; BBRC0057-0073), showing gold was intersected on each of the three drill lines tested.

Drill results of note include:

BBRC0070
26 metres at 2.55 grams per tonne gold from 19m, including 9m at 4.45g/t gold;

BBRC0071
12m at 4.41g/t gold from 48m, including 9m at 5.7g/t gold and 3m at 12.15g/t gold;

BBRC0063
17m at 1.59g/t gold from 28m, including 8m at 3.16g/t gold and 3m at 9.71g/t gold; and

BBRC0065
4m at 10.08g/t gold from 156m.

An infill drill hole was also completed at Bombora North (BBRC0057) intersecting:

11m at 3.11g/t gold from 8m, including 7m at 4.55g/t gold.

“The new RC results indicate that the Bombora and Bombora North discoveries may link up, establishing a continuous zone of mineralisation up to 2.2 kilometres long that is open to the north and at depth,” Breaker Resources said in its ASX announcement.

“The large strike and width dimensions in the gold mineralised areas outlined to date at Lake Roe suggest that the open pit and underground tonnage potential is substantial.

“The persistent occurrence of high-grade gold mineralisation in the current and previous RC drill programs is also encouraging.

“Sulphide-lode styles of gold mineralisation generally extend to substantial depths based on similar gold deposits in other parts of Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields.”
