Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX:GAL) has released the results from its recent RC drill campaign at the 100% owned Norseman project in Western Australia. The assay results demonstrate two target models for the Norseman Project, highlighting over ten km strike of untested target zone at the base of the intrusive sill. The company is scheduled to commence the next drill campaign in November with a 5,000 metre aircore program.
Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood expressed satisfaction with the results, stating, 'Results from our RC drill campaign at Norseman continue to show prospective palladium and platinum assays. These results are highly encouraging as they display how widely distributed the mineralisation is within our Norseman project area. Our ground has never been systematically explored for palladium-platinum mineralisation, and we are the first to realize the potential of this region.'
The recent exploration results at the Norseman project have revealed promising palladium-platinum zones, indicating the potential for additional styles of mineralisation beyond that known to occur at the Callisto deposit. The upcoming 5,000 metre aircore program in November is aimed at testing the basal unit of the Mission Sill for palladium, platinum, and nickel enrichment, which may be linked to economic sulphide mineralisation. Galileo Mining remains focused on the exploration and development of PGE, nickel, copper, and cobalt resources in Western Australia, with a strong emphasis on discovering new resources from its extensive tenement package.
