Highlights

  • Raiden Resources (ASX:RDN|DAX:YM4) has commenced drilling at the B1 deposit of the Mt Sholl Project, following completion of drilling at B2 where 17 of 17 holes intersected Ni-Cu sulphide mineralisation
  • The initial two diamond core holes at B1 have also struck nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation lying over significant widths and at shallow depths.
  • Drilling at the A1 deposit has also commenced.

Following encouraging drilling at the B2 deposit, Raiden Resources Limited (ASX:RDN|DAX:YM4) has struck nickel-copper sulphide mineralisation at the B1 deposit at its front runner Mt Sholl project.

The latest set of results for the B1 deposit includes data from the first two diamond core holes drilled to assess the mineralisation status.

Both the drill holes intersected near surface broad zones of visual massive, semi-massive, and disseminated nickel-copper (Ni-Cu) bearing sulphide mineralisation at the B1 deposit.

The summarised observations of the mineralised intervals are as follows:

  • Hole ID: 22B1DD001

Fine-grained pyrrhotite & chalcopyrite mineralisation exists in the form of disseminated mineralisation.

The mineralisation lies in a 22.7-metre interval running from 54.28 to 77.00 metres.

As per the visual estimate, the level of sulphide percentage stood at ~6%.

Pyroxenite acts as the host lithology for the interval.

The lithology of the interval is represented by pyroxenite.
