Aldoro Resources (ARN) has launched its maiden drilling campaign at the Wyemandoo critical metal pegmatite project in Western Australia.

Aldoro contracted Three Rivers Drilling to begin a 200-metre vertical hole into the northern loop structure. This is part of locating a feeder to the tree-like model, interpreted to feed the local dipping sills.

The reverse circulation drill program will initially focus on defining the geological setting for the dykes and sills, with five vertical and 21 inclined holes for an estimated 3500 metres to 4200 metres over the northern and southern loop structures.

Multiple targets have been identified at Wyemandoo, which were highlighted through an extensive sampling program conducted in the second half of 2021 that displayed high rubidium grades and anomalous lithium grades.

Aldoro has now secured all personnel for the work, including geologists and field consultants, along with necessary drilling equipment.

Aldoro said it plans to now switch its focus to its newly identified lithium drill locations.

Aldoro Resources shares climbed 2.33 per cent, trading at 22 cents at 1:45 pm AEST.
