Windward identifies new conductive body close to Nova

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Windward Resources (ASX: WIN) has identified a highly conductive body via a recent ground EM survey at the Western Margin prospect at the company’s Fraser Range North project in Western Australia.

The new body is situated four kilometres south-east of Sirius Resources’ (ASX: SIR) Nova-Bollinger deposit.

Windward described the conductor, WMA1, to have the highest conductivity of any conductor it has identified to date (7,400 siemens) and a time constant of 185 milliseconds.

The company explained this combination very high conductivity and time constant are typical for massive sulphides.

The conductor has been modelled as a 1.6 kilometre by 600 metre north-west dipping body and sits between two north-west striking faults, which Windward has interpreted to run through or very close to the nearby Nova deposit.

The top of the conductor has been interpreted to lie at a depth of approximately 250m.

Windward indicated this will be drill tested at approximately 350m below surface.

The company has a Program of Works has been approved by the Department of Mines and Petroleum to drill test the target and clearing of drill sites is underway.

“Yet another compelling drill target presents itself within our large Fraser Range project–and this is the best one yet,” Windward Resources CEO David Frances said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.

“Its proximity and interpreted geological relationship to Nova make it a stand-out drill target.

“Drilling approvals are in place and drill rig mobilisation will begin shortly to test this and other high quality targets within our tenements.”
