TG Metals to Commence Drilling on Lake Johnston Nickel Targets

THE DRILL SERGEANT: TG Metals (ASX: TG6) is gearing up for drilling programs to be carried out on the company’s Lake Johnston nickel-lithium-gold project in Western Australia.

TG Metals received final Program of Works (PoW) approvals for drilling programs on the Bremer Burmeister nickel laterite and nickel sulphide targets.

The company explained the drilling will entail multiple phases of drilling allowing follow-up infill and extensional drilling based on in-field observations as the drilling is conducted.

Drill samples will be collected from the Bremer Burmeister nickel laterite deposit to assess mineralisation suitability for beneficiation and grade suitability for third party processing.

Aboriginal heritage survey field activities were completed on the Burmeister lithium soil anomaly in preparation for proposed RC drilling programs.

TG Metals has already completed infill and extensional soil sampling over the Burmeister lithium prospect and initial multielement soil sampling over the distal projects of Lake Percy, Pagrus Hill and Wellstead Rock, from which samples are currently in the lab for analysis with results expected in July.

“We are excited to be preparing our first drilling programs on our combined nickel sulphide and laterite oxide targets,” TG Metals CEO David Selfe said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“Whilst it has been a long time coming, we have been able to define compelling nickel and lithium targets that are backed up by geochemistry and geophysics, that we expect to yield tangible results which will flow into the second half of 2023.”
