Estrella Resources Commences Timor-Leste Drilling

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Estrella Resources (ASX: ESR) has kicked off its maiden drill campaign in Timor-Leste focussing on the company’s Ira Miri manganese prospect.

Estrella Resources has been eager to get out on the ground at the project with the drilling being Timor-Leste’s first ever modern minerals exploration.

The company indicated there to be a large number of highly prospective targets to be tested across the virtually unexplored region.

The drilling campaign is to be conducted by CoreSearch and will consist of 10,000m of RC drilling and 3,000m of diamond drilling.

A secondary round of drilling is also under contract, consisting of a further 10,000m of RC drilling to be conducted after geological review.

Estrella anticipates the drilling at EMDD0001 will provide subsurface data with results to be rapidly assessed and guide further targeting work throughout the campaign.

“Commencing the first drillhole is a landmark moment for Estrella and for Timor-Leste, marking the start of the nation’s first-ever modern metallic minerals drill program,” Estrella Resources managing director Chris Daws said in the compnay’s ASX announcement.

“We’re proud to be leading this historic initiative and deeply grateful for the strong support from local communities, who have been actively engaged throughout the process.

“Their involvement, including recent cultural blessing ceremonies and assistance with the track building reflects the strong partnerships we’ve built on the ground.

“With CoreSearch’s man-portable diamond drill now drilling, we’re hitting the ground running.

“This initial phase will give us valuable subsurface data to guide our broader drilling campaign.

“It’s an exciting time for Estrella as we unlock the mineral potential of this underexplored region.”
