Kin Mining NL advise that initial diamond drilling being undertaken as part of the next phase of exploration and resource growth at its 100%-owned 1.4Moz Cardinia Gold Project (CGP), located near Leonora in Western Australia, has intersected significant zones of mineralisation at the targeted positions. As part of its ongoing exploration and growth program at the CGP, Kin Mining recently commenced a deep diamond drilling program to evaluate a number of IP geophysical anomalies located below the Helens, Helens East, Cardinia Hill and Rangoon deposits within the Eastern Corridor. The deeper IP targets were generated by re-processing data from historical IP surveys completed by Navigator Resources in 2013.

The IP targets have been developed following the completion of petrophysical testing on selected samples of high grade, quartz-sulphide mineralisation from the Helens, Rangoon and Cardinia Hill deposits that indicated that moderate IP responses were generated from sulphide mineralised samples that also carried elevated gold mineralisation. A total of five separate targets have been identified and are being systematically tested with a series of approximately 350m deep diamond holes. All five targets are located on two IP sections from the Kurrajong survey where mapping and resistivity data suggest the host rock is mafic or felsic volcanics.

This is the first generation of deeper targets to be tested at Cardinia and represents a significant exploration development for the project.
