Great Boulder Resources AC Drilling at Whiteheads Project
THE DRILL SERGEANT: Great Boulder Resources (ASX: GBR) resumed AC drilling at the company’s Whiteheads project north of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.
Great Boulder HAS set off to drill approximately 5,000m of planned drilling to continue testing five regional targets, including Blue Poles South, Tektite and Highbury on the Arsenal Trend, as well as further drilling at Jubilee North and the first drill program at the Eclipse prospect.
In anticipation of this program being completed, Great Boulder haS a diamond rig scheduled to commence drilling at the Mulga Bill prospect at Side Well in mid-February.
122 AC holes were drilled at Whiteheads in September and October 2021 testing a range of regional targets, including some that had not previously been drilled.
These included eight holes at Gunners, 23 holes at Tektite, south of Blue Poles, and eight holes at Highbury southwest of Tektite, all three targets on the Arsenal Trend.
Other drilling entailed six holes on a single fence of drilling at Reception Hill, 57 holes along strike to the northwest and southeast of Seven Leaders, and 20 holes at Jubilee North.
The program generated several anomalous intersections, including:
21WHAC110 at Tektite
1 metre at 2.55 grams per tonne gold from 41m;
21WHAC128 at Jubilee North
4m at 0.61g/t gold from 80m; and
WHAC174 at Seven Leaders
12m at 0.23g/t gold from 67m.
“It’s good to have our field team back on the ground at Whiteheads while we continue developing drilling programs for Side Well,” Great Boulder Resources managing director Andrew Paterson said.
“Whiteheads is a big project with dozens of priority targets, and this program continues our systematic testing that has been ongoing for the past two years.
“We’re also looking forward to the upcoming diamond program at Side Well next month.
“By that time, we should have the bulk of our 2021 assay data back, which will allow us to plan some big RC and diamond drilling programs in the months ahead.”
