Warriedar Resources Makes New High-Grade Antimony Discovery

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Warriedar Resources (ASX: WA8) declared a new antimony discovery from recent RC drilling undertaken at the company’s Golden Range project, located in the Murchison region of Western Australia.

Warriedar Resources has had some drilling wins this year along the ‘Golden Corridor’ located within the Golden Range project, within which is the Ricciardo deposit with a Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) hosting 948,000 ounces gold.

Lifting its eyes from Ricciardo, Warriedar’ final RC drilling campaign for 2024 focussed on scout drilling at Azure Coast a group of historical pits located approximately 4 km south of Ricciardo and extending across a slightly longer strike length of approx. 2.6 km.

Drillhole AZRC003 was fast tracked to the lab after high antimony pXRF readings and visible stibnite were recorded.

Assays returned high-grade antimony including:

8 metres at 2.17 per cent antimony from 106m
2m at 1.92 per cent antimony from 122m.

“The discovery of high-grade antimony mineralisation approximately 4km south of Ricciardo substantially enhances the prospectivity of the broader ‘Golden Corridor’ for this critical metal, along with the entire shear of the broader Golden Range Project,” Warriedar Resources managing director and CEO Amanda Buckingham said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“This outcome also follows the highly encouraging initial antimony metallurgical testwork results for Ricciardo that we released last week.

“While we are excited about this emerging opportunity, I want to emphasise again that pursuit of this opportunity will be in parallel with our growth-focussed gold drilling at Golden Range, which remains our current core focus.”
