Drilling will soon get underway at Great Southern Mining’s (GSN) Southern Star tenement in Western Australia.

A reverse circulation (RC) drill rig is on its way to the site near Laverton, with drilling set to begin next month.

The Southern Star tenement forms part of GSN’s wider Duketon Project, which is located near two of Regis Resources’ (RRL) gold mines.

The company is planning to follow up on previous drilling at Southern Star which returned high grades of 23.3g/t gold.

In addition to this, the drill rig will head to the One Weight Wonder prospect which is also located at Duketon.

GSN wants to follow up on mineralisation from historical drilling at the tenement, with drilling likely to extend to other prospects depending on soil sampling results.

“We are excited to be commencing RC drilling at our recently acquired Southern Star project,” CEO Sean Gregory commented.

“The drilling is aimed at building on the previous excellent exploration results from 2017 to 2018 that were achieved from less than 10,000 metres of drilling,” he said.

“We also intend to test the first of our regional exploration targets including the nearby One Weight Wonder prospect and additional targets pending soil survey results,” he added.

Shares in Great Southern Mining are trading steady at 5.2 cents per share at 11:45 am AEST.
