Kin Mining Continues to Build Confidence at Leonora Gold Project

/in /by

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Kin Mining (ASX: KIN) gave its 100 per cent-owned Leonora gold project (LGP) in Western Australia a boost with results from latest in-fill drilling returning wide, high-grade intercepts from the Helens North and Helens South deposits, part of the Cardinia Mining Centre.

Kin Mining explained the latest assays from the Helens deposit follow results recently recorded at the Fiona, Kyte, Rangoon deposits and the East Lynne prospect.

The company indicated these results are to be included in a revised Mineral Resource estimate and the current Definitive Feasibility Study.

The system remains open at depth and along strike with further drilling planned shortly.

The recent drilling at the Helens and Helens South deposits returned wide, high-grade intercepts, with better assays including:

HE17RC009
24m at 5.7 grams per tonne gold from surface, including 1m at 100g/t gold;

HE17RC020
15m at 3.7g/t gold from 1m, including 9m at 5.4g/t gold;

HS17RC015
8m at 7g/t gold from 26m, including 2m at 20.3g/t gold;

HE17RC022
12m at 5.8g/t gold from 2m, including 5m at 10.7g/t gold;

HE17RC049
12m at 3.2g/t gold from 38m, including 5m at 6.1g/t gold;

HS17RC019
11m at 3.2g/t gold from 39m, including 5m at 4.4g/t gold;

HE17RC002
30m at 2.2g/t gold from 23m, including 6m at 4.8g/t gold; and

HE17RC044
28m at 1.8g/t gold from surface, including 7m at 4.2g/t gold.

“Drilling results to date have exceeded our expectations at Cardinia, with consistent shallow and high-grade successes at Kyte, Rangoon, East Lynne, Fiona and now Helens,” Kin Mining managing director Don Harper said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.

“The ongoing drilling campaign continues to increase our confidence in the resource base of the LGP.

“We are on track to establish a strong maiden Ore Reserve which will underpin a larger 1.2 million tonnes per annum processing operation planned for Cardinia.”
