Venture Minerals Limited announced the commencement of the Company's maiden drill program at the Golden Grove North Project with arrival of the drill rig at the Vulcan North prospect. The RC drilling campaign will include at least 13 holes for 2,500 metres, testing four recently delineated priority VMS targets. One of the VMS drill targets "Number One" already boasts a VMS style drill intersection of 22m @ 0.76 g/t Gold, 0.64% Copper & 1.3% Zinc from 38m to bottom of hole, including 10m @ 1.0g/t Gold, 0.74% Copper & 2.1% Zinc from 50m to bottom of hole, that sits on trend between the two recently delineated high priority VMS drill targets of Vulcan North and Vulcan West. The Vulcan Central EM target sits within a highly prospective VMS rock sequence, immediately below surface rock chip results of up 23.8% Cu with gold and zinc, and copper in sulfides. Additionally, a significant copper in soil anomaly is also associated with the priority target and is of a similar size to that of Gossan Hill (15.9Mt @ 2.6% Cu, 1.5% Zn, 0.2% Pb, 21 g/t Ag & 0.6 g/t Au 1), discovered nearly 50 years ago and in turn gave rise to the Golden Grove Mine. The Vulcan West EM target is a strongly conductive zone interpreted to represent a massive sulfide target that sits along strike from shallow historic drill intersections of up to 0.5% Zn, within a geological setting analogous to the second substantial, historical discovery at Golden Grove being the Scuddles deposit (10.5Mt @ 1.2% Cu, 11.7% Zn, 0.8% Pb, 89 g/t Ag & 1.1 g/t Au1). Scuddles was discovered in 1979 by using EM techniques under similar cover after initial RAB3 drilling was deemed too shallow to intersect sulfide mineralisation. The Vulcan North EM target is also a strongly conductive zone interpreted to represent a massive sulfide target that sits within a highly prospective VMS rock sequence below highly anomalous zinc in soil results and shallow drill intersections of up to 0.5% Zn. Again, Vulcan North is within a geological setting analogous to the Scuddles deposit. The Company currently has a ground EM crew on site to further pinpoint the VMS drill target at the Number One prospect around the historic drill hole WRC054. Venture is still planning to drill this target after the EM survey is completed whilst the RC rig is still on site during the maiden drill program at Golden Grove North. Highlights at the Golden Grove North Project include: 286 km2 located less than 10 kilometres from the Golden Grove Mine; 25 strike kilometres of a largely untested, prospective geological sequence for VMS style mineralisation with early exploration success yielding the Vulcan and Neptune VMS targets; EM surveys at Vulcan have discovered three high priority VMS drill targets at and around the Copper-Gold Prospect along strike to the Golden Grove Zinc-Copper-Gold Mine; Historic shallow gold drill intersections including 10 metres @ 1.4g/t gold from 16m, 8 metres @ 2.1g/t gold from 6m, 6 metres @2.3g/t gold from 6 metres and 3 metres @ 3.6g/t gold from 95 metres; Historic surface rock chip sampling has returned assays including 9.4g/t gold, 7.4g/t gold & 6.6% copper, 6.2g/t gold, 5.7g/t gold, 4.0 g/t gold, 3.8g/t gold & 3.1% lead, 7.6% copper & 0.1% zinc, 8.0% copper, 2.0% copper, 1.8% copper & 3g/t silver. Golden Grove Camp (Mine): The Golden Grove Camp, 370 kilometres north-northeast of Perth, is the prime VMS occurrence in the Archean Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia with over twelve deposits discovered over 13 kilometres of strike. The first significant deposit, Gossan Hill (15.9Mt @ 2.6% Cu, 1.5% Zn, 0.2% Pb, 21 g/t Ag & 0.6 g/t Au1) was discovered in 1971, then in 1979 the second substantial find was identified at Scuddles (10.5Mt @ 1.2% Cu, 11.7% Zn, 0.8% Pb, 89 g/t Ag & 1.1 g/t Au1). At the end of 2002, Golden Grove had an endowment (resources and production) of 40.2Mt @ 1.8% Cu, 0.9% Pb, 7.6% Zn, 103 g/t Ag & 0.8 g/t Au. In February 2017, EMR Capital purchased Golden Grove for USD 210M and states that after 27 years of continuous production there is over 10 years of mine life in reserve for the 1.7Mt per annum operation2. It is also stated that further expansion will take place through the continued development of its world class Xantho Extended ore body. As of June 30, 2019, Golden Grove global resources consist of 22.2Mt of zinc ore, 29.4Mt of copper ore, and 0.1Mt of Gold Oxide ore2.
