Maximus Resources has RC drill spinning to test Wattle Dam Gold Mine extension
Maximus Resources Limited (ASX:MXR) (FRA:M5F) has started a 1,500-metre reverse circulation (RC) resource extension and infill drilling program at the Wattle Dam Gold Mine, 24 kilometres from Kambalda, Western Australias premier gold and nickel mining district. Drilling is testing a potential northern extension of the high-grade shoot along with resource drilling of remnant stockwork mineralisation at Wattle Dam. Resource drilling will support a mineral resource estimate, with the potential to increase the current 112,000-ounce resource. The multi-target program incorporates regional exploration gold targets at Yilmia and Karramindie and includes resource extension and infill drilling at the Larkinville project. Due to the limited availability of drill rigs in Western Australia, a comprehensive multi-target program was designed to secure a preferred drill contractor. Resource estimate drilling A recent review of legacy data highlighted a broad zone of remnant unmined carbonate-quartz stockwork with significant gold mineralisation intersections, adjacent to the previously mined high-grade shoot at Wattle Dam.
