TechGen Metals (TG1) has completed drilling at its Station Creek project in the Ashburton Basin of Western Australia.

The company drilled 12 reverse circulation (RC) holes for 1636 metres in the area to test a series of induced polarisation (IP), structural and geochemical targets at the TA1 to TA4 prospects.

TechGen has sampled the full length of each hole, with the samples now sent off to laboratories in Perth for gold and base metal assay.

Meanwhile, now that drilling has wrapped up at Station Creek, work has begun at the Mount Boggola project.

TechGen said it planned to drill up to six RC holes in this area to target three strong and discrete electromagnetic (EM) anomalies.

This drilling is funded by the WA State Government’s Exploration Incentive Scheme.

“It’s great to have the drill rods now spinning at our Mount Boggola project,” TG1 Managing Director Ashley Hood said.

“It has been a busy quarter for TechGen, with drilling programs successfully completed at both John Bull in NSW and Station Creek in WA, and now underway at Mount Boggola.”

The Mount Boggola drilling is expected to take between seven to 10 days to complete.

TechGen was down 15.4 per cent on the market, with shares trading at 16.5 cents at 12:10 pm AEST.
