Summary
Barton Gold Holdings Limited announced significant advancements at the Tolmer Silver Discovery in South Australia, following a recent drilling program of 3,677 meters. The program aimed to infill and extend the high-grade silver mineralisation, with assays reaching over 2,000 gram-metres of silver. Notably, multiple high-grade intersections were recorded in both the 'western silver zone' and the 'eastern gold zone'. The 'western silver zone' was extended to over 500 meters in strike, showcasing broad, shallow mineralisation, while the 'eastern gold zone' reported high-grade gold intersections with gold grades up to 28.9 g/t. Metallurgical testwork is planned to analyze the potential for a low-cost, high-margin operation. This discovery could significantly contribute to Barton's overall strategy in South Australia, complementing its existing gold assets.
Key Points
  • High-grade silver assays exceeding 2,000 g-m identified.
  • Extension of 'western silver zone' to over 500m.
  • Notable gold intersections in 'eastern gold zone'.
