ASX Release - 29 July 2015
Geophysical surveys underway at Stark regional targets
Moving Loop EM geophysics targeting massive sulphide mineralisation underway on 5 regional targets along strike from Stark copper-nickel-PGE prospect with results by mid-August 2015
Regional targets being advanced to complement planned follow-up drilling at Stark
Mithril Resources Ltd (ASX: MTH) is pleased to advise that ground EM geophysics to define additional drill targets within the broader Stark prospect area (located 80 kilometres south east of Meekatharra, WA - Figure 1) has commenced.
The aim of the geophysics is to identify further occurrences of massive sulphide mineralisation along strike from existing copper-nickel-PGE drill intercepts at Stark.
Moving Loop Ground EM (MLEM) will be carried out over 5 regional targets (named A to E - see Figure 2) that have been prioritised based on their similarities with Stark; being the presence of magmatic sulphides, mafic and/or ultramafic rocktypes and the presence of a discrete magnetic anomaly (see ASX Announcement dated 15
July 2015).
None of the regional targets have been previously covered by ground EM geophysics and with the exception of one target, have no previous drill testing.
The regional targets are being advanced to complement planned follow-up drilling at Stark where a number of high-priority bedrock EM conductors lie along strike from, and adjacent to, previously drilled semi-massive and massive sulphide mineralisation.
Results from the surveys are expected mid-August 2015. Target A lies within a tenement that is wholly owned by
Mithril Resources and is not part of the Nanadie Well Joint
Venture.
The Stark prospect and remaining targets lie within tenements subject to the Nanadie Well Farmin and Joint Venture with Intermin Resources Limited (ASX: IRC) whereby Mithril can earn an initial 60% interest by completing expenditure of $2M by 14 April 2018, and an additional 15% by completing further expenditure of $2M over a further 2 years (in total $4M over 6 years for 75%).
