Bellavista Resources (BVR) has identified a host of “highly promising” base metals drill targets at its Brumby project in Western Australia.

The findings followed “strong” geophysical and petrology results, which the company said supported its strategy to close in on high-grade mineralisation at the project.

The surveys were conducted after the company received drill results from a program last year that displayed extensive zinc, silver and copper mineralisation over a 30-square-kilometre footprint.

The ”highly promising” anomalies were then identified via passive seismic and electromagnetic surveys and petrology.

Bellavista Executive Director Mick Wilson said the data revealed a “strong body of evidence” that supported their prospectivity.

“The next round of geophysics is aimed at further refining zones of base metal enrichment over the 175 kilometres of project strike,” Mr Wilson said.

“This will ensure we have a significant amount of quality information on which to base our 2023 drilling programs, starting with diamond drilling in a few weeks’ time.”

In light of these results, Bellavista said it would fast-track its planned airborne geophysics surveys.

Following this, diamond drilling to test the priorities anomalies is expected to start by the end of the month.

Bellavista Resources shares were last trading at 16.5 cents at 12:43 pm AEDT.
