THE DRILL SERGEANT: Metal Hawk (ASX: MHK) has been busy, exploration wise, at the company’s Yarmany project on the outskirts of Coolgardie in Western Australia.

Metal Hawk has already established the Yarmany project to host 50 kilometres of strike along the Ida Fault, a major regional structure on the western margin of Kalgoorlie Terrane, which is host to the Goldfields’ most significant lithium deposits including Delta Lithium’s Mt Ida project and Liontown Resources’ Kathleen Valley deposit.

The company’s completed its maiden aircore (AC) program of 148 holes for a total of 5,865 metres at the F-camp prospect area, designed to determine the orientation and the depth of weathering of several sparsely outcropping pegmatite units.

Although results from the aircore program are still to be received, Metal Hawk is already in site preparation mode getting set for deeper reverse circulation (RC) drilling, which will aim to effectively test a number of F-camp pegmatite target units beneath the weathering profile.

“Following the recent successful capital raising, we are very excited to get RC drilling underway this week,” Metal Hawk managing director Will Belbin said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“The aircore drilling program went very well and we believe it has helped us define the best parts of the large F-camp pegmatite swarm for bedrock testing.

“We are also very excited to be ramping up our extensive regional exploration program.

‘An extensive auger geochemical sampling program is now underway focusing on the southern half of the Yarmany project and this will help us quickly develop regional lithium targets for drilling in Q1 2024.”
