Castile Resources Limited is pleased to provide the following update to its previously announced 2022 drilling and geophysical field work programs at its 100% owned Rover Mineral Field.
The diamond rig has completed Hole 22CRD001-1 and an additional Navi-wedge 22CRD001-2 at Rover 1 was then drilled. The aim of these holes was to test areas both within the current orebody and possible extensions to the interpreted areas of mineralisation. Core samples from the parent hole were dispatched to the laboratory last week and results are expected within days. Castile looks forward to presenting those results as they become available.
Preparation and sampling of the core from the wedge hole are underway. The rig has now mobilised to Rover 4 to begin drilling for extensions to the previously advised IOCG mineralisation. The Company also confirms that GAP Geophysics has commenced a further program of Down Hole Electromagnetic Testing (“DHEM”) of the previously advised off hole conductor at Explorer 142 in the 2021 program. The gap will then proceed to Explorer 108 to perform further DHEM from holes previously drilled and prepared during the 2021 field season.
In further advance, the Company advises that specialist consultant, Atlas Geophysics has commenced ground based Gravity Surveys over the regional magnetic anomalies with the southern tenements at the Rover 3 and Pathfinder 27 prospects. This program should continue for most of the month of July
