Kin Mining Eyes Large Mineralised System at East Lynne
THE DRILL SERGEANT: Kin Mining (ASX: KIN) should be garnering plenty of attention on the opening day of the RIU Resurgence Conference following its announcement of new assay results from recent aircore (AC) drilling at the company’s 100 per cent-owned Cardinia Gold Project (CGP), located near Leonora in Western Australia.
Kin Mining recently completed AC drilling at the East Lynne prospect as part of the ongoing Phase 3 drilling program at the CGP, from which it reported assay results for Lines 7 and 8 of 14 lines drilled at the emerging trend.
The company considers the East Lynne prospect to be a potential new discovery within the CGP.
Results include:
Line 7
EL20AC170
4 metres at 1.14 grams per tonne gold from 8m;
EL20AC171
4m at 0.94g/t gold from 8m.
Line 8
EL20AC192
5m at 35.1g/t gold from 40m to EOH;
EL20AC191
4m at 0.96g/t gold from 12m.
Kin recently drilled its first deep diamond hole drilled in the far northern part of the East Lynne target that also intersected high-grade gold mineralisation, including:
EL20DD332
2m at 1.03g/t gold from 184.04m;
1m at 20.9g/t gold from 230m.
“This is an exciting breakthrough for our ongoing systematic exploration of the East Lynne trend, which we now believe has all the hallmarks of an emerging, large-scale mineralised system,” Kin Mining managing director Andrew Munckton said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.
“Intersecting 5 metres at 35 grams per tonne in shallow, wide-spaced air-core drilling is a remarkable result and will certainly see our exploration at East Lynne step-up a gear.
“What’s important is that this is not a one-off.
“The new AC results are delineating areas of significant high-grade gold mineralisation within the East Lynne Trend over an extensive area.
“We have now defined a semicontinuous zone of mineralisation spanning an area 100 metres wide and up to 3.2 kilometres long above a significant geological contact.
“While we always believed that the East Lynne target had significant potential, the latest results demonstrate that the target is an extensive zone of sulphide mineralisation containing significant areas of high-grade gold mineralisation away from the historical workings along the trend.
“We are looking forward to testing the other sections at depth at 800 metres spacing to confirm the continuity of the sulphide zone and see if we have an emerging greenfields discovery of considerable scale and potential.”
