Integra intercepts further gold / copper mineralisation

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Integra Mining has reported drilling results carried out at the Imperial prospect situated on the Majestic area of the company’s Randalls gold project in Western Australia.

The diamond drill hole was undertaken to provide the company with structural information on mineralisation identified by previous drilling, which included 19 metre at 4.39 grams per tonne gold.

The latest drilling has also returned high-grade results, including:

–    6.2m at 13.43 grams per tonne gold and 1.5 per cent copper; and

–    2m at 31.1 g/t gold and 1.3 per cent copper.

The results have provided Integra with the motivation to re-assay the previous hole for copper as this was not done in the previous submission.

The Imperial prospect is located 500m from the Majestic gold prospect.

Integra said the gold mineralisation at Imperial is hosted within the same granodiorite unit hosting Majestic and appears to be associated with a similar series of porphyry dykes.

“The true width of the mineralised zone cannot be determined with the limited drill data available, Integra Mining said in its ASX announcement.

“Mineralisation at the Imperial prospect is open along strike to the north where shallow WMC-era RC drilling intercepted two metres at 1.8 grams per tonne gold from 52 metres to bottom of hole, and to the south where there is no RC drilling for some 200 metres.”
