High Grade Gold Discovery at the Western Queen Project
Perth, Feb 17, 2020 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Rumble Resources Ltd (
ASX:RTR) (20Z:FRA) is pleased to announce results from RC, diamond core drilling and down-hole geophysical surveys at the Western Queen Project located north-west of Mt Magnet, Western Australia.
Western Queen Central Deposit - Gold 300m Down-plunge and Open
Rumble completed 3 step out RC/Diamond drill holes 54m, 180m and 300m along strike from the historic high-grade gold intersection WQD-1072 (6.3m @ 36.06 g/t Au), intersecting gold in all holes demonstrating the gold mineralising system extends at least 300m and is open.
o WQRC007D - 6m @ 34.24 g/t Au from 354m
- Very strong gold continuity 54m down-plunge from WQD-1072
- DHEM Survey - An off-hole conductor related to the high-grade gold lies below and north of the drill-hole and correlates with a historic high-grade gold intersection (WQD- 1089 - 11.8m @ 16.08 g/t Au)
o WQRC020D - 4.4m @ 3.22 g/t Au from 349.9m
- Strong gold continuity a further 190m down-plunge & along strike from WQD-1072
- DHEM survey incomplete - Area below hole not surveyed, however based on the position of conductors related to high-grade gold mineralisation in WQRC007D, it is interpreted that higher-grade gold mineralisation lies below the current drilling and will be tested in upcoming drilling
o WQRC023D - 5.4m @ 5.11 g/t Au from 365.5m
- Strong gold continuity a further 310m down-plunge & along strike from WQD-1072
- DHEM Survey - A significant off hole conductor lies below the drill-hole intercept and based on the position of conductors related to high-grade gold mineralisation in WQRC007D it is interpreted that higher-grade gold mineralisation lies below the current drilling. This conductor will be tested in upcoming drilling Important: Mineralisation is completely open southwest along strike/down plunge and WQRC020D & WQRC023D are the only step out holes completed.
Western Princess - New High-Grade Gold Shoot Discovery
- A new high-grade gold shallow shoot has been discovered between the Western Queen Central and Western Queen South Historical Pits returning:
o WQRC011 - 3m @ 19.9 g/t Au from 8m
Important: The new zone is open to the south and down plunge North of the Western Queen Central deposit - New High-Grade Gold Zone
- North of historic drill hole (QNC-10310-1- 6m @ 37.34 g/t Au from 50m) drilling intersected a new high-grade gold zone:
o WQRC002 - 1m @ 11.8 g/t Au from 103m
Important: No drilling has been completed north of drill-hole WQRC002
Western Queen Central South Zone
- Infill and extension RC drilling completed returned multiple shallow gold intersections highlighting potential for an oxide (soft) gold resource from surface including:
o WQRC004 - 5m @ 6.5g/t Au from 30m
o WQRC005 - 4m @ 4.3 g/t Au from 10m
o WQRC008 - 19m @ 1.51 g/t Au from 2m
Next Steps
- Drilling imminent to test interpreted higher-grade gold zone below WQRC020D & WQRC023D
