Legacy Minerals Receives Harden Gold mine Assays

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Legacy Minerals Holdings (ASX: LGM) brought the market up to speed regarding the exploration program being implemented at the company’s Harden Gold Mine prospect in New South Wales.

Diamond drilling was carried out to follow earlier RC drilling that returned high-grade gold intercepts that confirmed mineralisation extended along strike and down dip of historically mined areas.

This returned broad intersections that combined with the former to highlight the previously unknown large scale of the system, with broad mineralised zones intercepted within a wide and extensively altered shear zone.

Legacy has taken encouragement from these results for future drill campaigns targeting along strike and at depth.

“While not replicating the success of the initial reverse circulation drilling, the diamond drill program has confirmed a significant mineralised system and delivered significant geological insight into the Harden Gold Mine mineralisation providing LGM with additional data for its geological model,” Legacy Minerals managing director Christopher Byrne said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“It was disappointing that two of the priority drill holes intersected un-mapped workings, however these are the first ever diamond cored holes drilled into the prospect and the campaign has confirmed and highlighted the scale and extent of the mineralised system.

“The Harden project has significant potential which remains untested over the 1.2 kilometres mineralised strike.

“The company is developing drill targets to test part of the southern strike at McMahons Reef that saw historical intercepts including 3.6 metres at 21.7 grams per tonne gold.

“In the near term we will focus our exploration efforts on the Bauloora, Cobar, and Rockley projects.”
