Galileo Mining (ASX:GAL) has announced significant results from its aircore drilling program at the Mission Sill prospect, part of its Norseman project in Western Australia. The drilling identified zones rich in Platinum Group Elements, particularly palladium and platinum, with notable drill assays including intervals such as 32 meters at 0.44 g/t 3E from 16 meters in hole NAC470 and 40 meters at 0.33 g/t 3E from the surface in hole NAC471.
Galileo Mining is optimistic about the recent aircore drilling results at the Mission Sill prospect in Western Australia's Norseman project. The drilling revealed anomalous zones rich in Platinum Group Elements, particularly palladium and platinum. The company's future plans include further sampling and a follow-up drill program in Q1 2025, focusing on infill drilling and exploring a 12 km prospective trend. This initiative aligns with Galileo's strategy to discover new resources within its extensive tenement package in a region known for mining activity. The company is set to conduct rhodium testing to enhance understanding of the mineralization and its economic potential. With approximately 5,300 meters of drilling completed, the identified zones of interest, including the basal contact unit of the sill complex and the upper contact zone, indicate promising opportunities for future exploration.
The widespread nature of the mineralization and potential for economic deposits is very encouraging. The ongoing and upcoming assays, including rhodium testing, will aid in identifying economically viable mineralization zones and assist in targeting future drilling.
