TG Metals Commences Lake Johnston Nickel Sulphide Exploration

THE DRILL SERGEANT: TG Metals (ASX:TG6) has commenced a Slingram Moving Loop Transient Electromagnetic (SMLTEM) geophysical survey at the company’s wholly owned Lake Johnston project in Western Australia.

TG Metals is conducting the testing as part of recommended outcomes from a previous geophysics review and will cover approx. 30-kilometre strike of the Lake Johnston Greenstone Belt, south of the Maggie Hays-Emily Anne nickel sulphide mining centre.

The company said the aim of the survey is to detect conductive bodies at depth that are indicative of nickel sulphide mineralisation.

Multiple targets have been defined by existing geophysics, surface geochemistry and drilling, conducted by past explorers.

The SMLTEM survey will be the first modern high-powered ground EM used to test the prospective ultramafic host lithologies extending from the Maggie Hays – Emily Anne mining centre.

Following the results of this SMLTEM program, any conductors identified will be assessed for follow-up geophysical work or drill testing.

“We are really looking forward to the results from the first modern ground geophysics to be conducted on this project for 10 years,” TG Metals CEO David Selfe said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“In addition to the existing drill targets, we expect that further drill targets will be defined from this EM program, in preparation for our maiden drill program.

“This EM program will provide important targeting information to increase the prospects for finding a nickel sulphide deposit of significance in the area.”
