Highlights
Golden Rim's resource definition RC drilling at Kada continues to delineate multiple, broad, subparallel zones of gold mineralisation.
Extensive additional gold mineralisation located within historic
New results to add significant ounces in the planned Kada maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), on track for delivery in
Golden Rim has completed second round of Kada resource definition drilling; 46 holes for 6,796m.
Assays for the final 10 holes of the resource definition drilling are pending; results expected shortly.
Exploration RC drilling is underway and progressing well along the Kada gold corridor.
Golden Rim has extended Kada exploration drilling contract to 3,950m.
Golden Rim's Managing Director,
Kada Resource Definition Drilling
Golden Rim recently completed its second round of Mineral Resource definition drilling at Kada, which focused on an area where
KRC045 to KRC047 were drilled on section 1,224,280mN, in areas where Golden Rim's preliminary grade shell modelling following its first round of resource definition drilling in mid-2021required additional data for model confidence. All three holes intersected mineralisation up-dip or down-dip from previous drilling and have expanded the mineralisation significantly. A very promising result is that half of the gold intersection of 61m @ 1.2g/t gold from surface in KRC047, including a higher-grade zone of 7m @ 3.5g/t gold from 42m, was beyond the preliminary mineralisation modelling. The holes were characterised by very strongly altered fine grained tuff, with the highest gold grades being associated with kaolinization, iron-rich quartz veins and traces of tourmaline.
KRC048 and KRC049 were drilled on section 1,224,560mN in an area of poor drill density in the northern portion of the
Drilling intersected interbedded greywacke and fine-grained tuff with intense silicic alteration and fine quartz veins. KRC037B was a re-drill of KRC037 on section 1,224,440N which was terminated at 30m due to hole blockage. This drilling successfully extended mineralisation west of the preliminary modelling and contains broad intercepts of low-grade gold in both oxide and fresh material. This hole is dominated by fine grained volcanic tuff, +/- garnet, with strong haematite + chlorite alteration.
