The drilling run started on Thursday, November 6 and finished on time 14 days later. It covered lines five, six, and seven “in full,” Haranga said today.
Everything went smoothly, the Australian explorer declared, with hole depths ranging from 22 to 88 metres. The main objectives in the Phase Two program had included several reconnaissance lines that have now been drilled in and confirmation of the lateral continuation of shallow mineralisation.
Haranga had also been looking to enhance structural and lithological understanding that will now be used to guide deeper planned RC and diamond drilling.
“Haranga is excited to have completed the second drilling program at Ibel South Gold Project on schedule and without incident,” managing director Peter Batten said in today’s update. All program targets had been hit, he added.
The 1,000 composite samples picked up by Haranga through the aircore program will now be sent away for processing by SGS. “We look forward to receiving assay results before Christmas,” Mr Batten said on a return date.
Once those assays come in – a perfect pressie for Haranga investors, should results trend how the company expects – the explorer will get started on prep work for the RC and diamond drilling planned for CY26.
Haranga will also “look at depth extensions at Ibel South,” Mr Batten added.
Price-wise, today’s news has seen HAR sitting at 14cps.
