Hamelin Gold (HMG) plans reverse circulation and diamond drilling at Jazz prospect
Drilling targets a key structural intersection within West Tanami project
Work follows previous surface sampling and aircore drilling activities
The mining sector, as represented in the ASX 200 index, continues to feature exploration and development initiatives across Australia. Hamelin Gold (ASX:HMG), an active company in this space, is advancing its activities at the Jazz prospect, part of the West Tanami gold project in Western Australia.
Upcoming Drilling Programs
Hamelin Gold (ASX:HMG) is preparing to conduct reverse circulation and diamond drilling programs at the Jazz prospect. These drilling efforts are designed to investigate a significant zone spanning a key structural intersection known as the Sultan gold corridor combined with a northwest trending geological feature. The program aims to follow up on earlier exploration work and expand the understanding of mineralisation at the site.
Previous Exploration Activities
Before these planned drilling campaigns, Hamelin Gold (ASX:HMG) carried out surface sampling and aircore drilling at Jazz. These preliminary activities provided foundational data that supported the decision to advance to more detailed and deeper drilling techniques. The earlier exploration contributed important insights into the geological setting of the prospect.
Project Location and Geological Context
The Jazz prospect is situated within the West Tanami project in Western Australia, a region known for its gold mineralisation and exploration potential. The intersecting geological structures targeted by the drilling programs are of interest due to their historical association with mineral deposits in the region.
Timing and Program Sequence
The reverse circulation drilling is scheduled to commence after the completion of the Fremlins South program. The focus will be on a zone that extends approximately two thousand meters along the intersecting structures. Diamond drilling is planned to complement these efforts, providing additional geological and structural information at depth.
