GreenTech Metals Set for Resource Expansion Drilling Planned at Whundo Copper Project

THE DRILL SERGEANT: GreenTech Metals (ASX: GRE) is readying to commence a second stage drill program at the company’s Whundo copper-zinc project in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia.

GreenTech Metals hopes to commence drilling in the coming weeks of a program aiming to confirm potential for substantial Resource expansion at the Whundo cluster of VMS style copper-zinc deposits, following the first program completed in July 2024.

The drill program is planned to focus on the under-explored mineralised prospects at the project of Austin, Shelby, Yannery and Ayshia.

GreenTech anticipates DHEM surveys undertaken on these initial drill holes will result in highlighting of additional conductor targets which may also be tested as part of this planned program.

“Following hot on the heels of a successful first stage of drilling, this next campaign will get underway this year to further test potential extensions to the mineralised shoots comprising the Whundo VMS cluster,” GreenTech Metals executive director Tom Reddicliffe said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“In particular, we eagerly await the outcome of testing the exceptional Shelby conductor which eclipses other targets in the field with respect to its scale.

“This target is a clear standout and will be a priority to be drilled.

“Given the nature of VMS clusters, and the multiple opportunities for resource growth we believe a project with around 10-15Mt would make a significant difference to the economics of the Whundo Copper project and represents a potentially achievable target for exploration going forward.”
