Aurumin Limited (ASX: AUN) ('Aurumin' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce RC drilling is complete and diamond drilling has started at its 100% owned Central Sandstone Gold Project.
Aurumin's first drilling programme at Sandstone is progressing well with the reverse circulation (RC) portion finished. Nine holes, for 1245m, of RC drilling on the Shillington BIF deposit and five RC pre-collars for the Two Mile Hill Tonalite have been completed.
Diamond drilling now underway
This drilling is targeting the Two Mile Hill Tonalite between 250m and 500m below the surface and seeks to improve upon the existing 500,000koz Au underground resource, in line with the previously released ASX announcement dated 02/05/2022. Aurumin expects the diamond portion of the programme to take approximately two weeks with further logging and sampling to be completed at the end of the programme.
Aurumin's Managing Director, Brad Valiukas, commented: 'We are pleased to have diamond drilling underway at our Central Sandstone Project. 'We see the Two Mile Hill underground resource as a key part of the project going forward, with the scale to potentially underpin future production and we look forward to the results.'
