Cassini Resources commences West Musgrave drilling with OZ Minerals

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Cassini Resources (ASX: CZI) has commenced drilling at the West Musgrave project, located in Western Australia, as part of the company’s Earn-in/JV Agreement with OZ Minerals (ASX: OZL).

Cassini Resources informed the market that diamond drilling has commenced at the Babylon prospect, located at the western end of the Succoth copper deposit, which the company considers to have potential to host massive sulphides and in particular, nickel sulphides, beneath the existing copper-dominant resource.

Cassini said the drilling at Babylon is expected to take between two to three weeks to complete before the rig will be mobilised to the Nebo-Babel deposit to complete several large diameter drill holes to collect metallurgical samples for test work.

An additional drill hole to test an off-hole conductor at the One Tree Hill prospect will round-off the program.

This is anticipated to commence in early December.

“The drill hole at Babylon will target a wide intersection of the interpreted sub-vertical mineralised zone for a further 260 metres to 350 metres below the current maximum depth of downhole electromagnetic investigation, and 230 metres to 590 metres vertically below the mineralisation intersected in hole WMN4023 (1.96 per cent nickel, 0.13 per cent copper, 1.2 grams per tonne Pt+Pd),” Cassini Resources said in its ASX announcement.

“This mineralisation occurs as massive sulphide xenoliths that have been remobilized in a late-stage dolerite dyke.”

Cassini indicated it would be spending the money it received through WA Government EIS funding worth up to $148,500 to off-set the direct drilling costs at Babylon.
