Lefroy Exploration Recommences Aircore Drilling Program

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Lefroy Exploration (ASX: LEX) has kicked off a follow-up aircore drilling program along the Woolibar Trend in Lake Lefroy at the company’s Lefroy gold project (LGP), located south east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.

Lefroy Exploration said the follow up drilling is being carried out to further evaluate new gold anomalies identified during a preliminary exploration program completed in February.

The new drilling has been designed to reaffirm the Ccmpany’s concept on the emerging gold prospectivity along or proximal to the Woolibar Fault.

Lefroy explained it had completed an early stage aircore drill program in February to evaluate seven priority target areas located within the eastern part of Lake Lefroy in its wholly-owned tenements.

The seven targets comprised six conceptual targets Lefroy had defined from geophysical datasets and one geochemical target known as the Zanex prospect, where previous drilling by Cyprus Gold Australia Limited in 1997 intersected 6 metres at 2.97 grams per tonne gold from wide spaced aircore drilling that was never followed up.

“The results from the February drill program have reaffirmed the tenor of gold at the Zanex prospect and highlighted two new and emerging targets at LLT04 and LLT06 that are based upon a subtle geochemical gold signature, a favourable geological environment and trends defined from aeromagnetic data,” Lefroy Exploration said in its ASX announcement.

“The aim of the program is to follow up and extend the gold anomaly recently identified but also to test the sharp contact zone as defined from both the aeromagnetic and gravity data.

“This geological contact is considered by the Company to be a prospective area for gold mineralisation, with contrasting rock units that could be a favourable structural environment.”
