As stated by Aeon Metals Managing Director Hamish Collins, that during April- October 2018, Aeon Metals undertook Australia’s most massive base metals drilling campaign. The excellent results from the final 26 holes of resource drilling covering 36,032 meters clearly demonstrate the massive copper-cobalt potential of the Walford Creek project. The company is looking forward to updating the market in early Q1 2019 with an upgraded Resource which will utilize all the 2018 Resource drilling results.
