Carawine Resources (CWX) has intersected visible gold in the first diamond hole at the Hercules gold prospect.

The gold and base metals explorer is planning to drill 16 diamond holes at Hercules, with the first hole intersecting coarse, visible gold within a three metre wide shear zone.

Hercules is a significant gold discovery in Carawine’s Thunderstruck Joint Venture, which forms part of the company’s Tropicana North Project, located in the northeastern goldfields of Western Australia.

With this positive result, the company could potentially add more drill holes to the current drilling program.

Managing Director David Boyd is pleased with the first glimpse of the Hercules prospect.

“Every exploration geologist loves seeing gold so coarse that it is visible to the naked eye,” he said. “Our first diamond hole into Hercules has returned gold in laminated veins in a shear zone in the right orientation– further evidence that we have a significant gold discovery on our hands.

“We are excited to see what else will come from the diamond drilling program. We have already added two more holes, with the ability to add more holes as our understanding of Hercules continues to improve.”

Just before the market opening this morning, Carawine was sitting at 21 cents per share.
