White Cliff Minerals (WCN) has received the remaining results from its maiden reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at the Reedy South Gold Project.
Reedy South spans 272 square kilometres and lies in the Cue Goldfields of Western Australia, 80 kilometres south of Meekatharra.
Work began in mid-November with aims to grow the resource, convert the inferred resource to the indicated category and test strike extensions.
Of the 4500-metre drilling program, roughly 3000 metres was completed before the Christmas shutdown period.
On January 21, White Cliff received results from the first 11 holes which saw grades peak at 3.16g/t gold.
Best results include 11 metres at 3.19g/t gold from 51 metres including three metres at 8.87g/t gold, seven metres at 3.16g/t gold from 53 metres, and six metres at 2.96g/t gold from 18 metres.
“It is great to see the continuation of excellent assay results from all of the first 38 drillholes, and I am looking forward to the restart of drilling in the next few weeks, with drilling targeting down-dip and plunge extensions to the high-grade zones,” Technical Director Ed Mead said.
The RC rig will move to the Reedy South prospect in the first week of February to complete deeper holes, which will target depth extensions to the mineral resource estimate area.
White Cliff is down 3.7 per cent on the market and shares are trading at 2.6 cents at 12:16 pm AEDT.
