Sabre Resources Ltd (ASX:SBR) has initiated an extensive aircore drilling program at Sherlock Bay in Western Australia's North-West Pilbara region. The program aims to test a series of electromagnetic (EM) sulphide targets within the Scholl Shear Gold and Ni-Cu-Co corridor. Previous diamond drilling of a major EM anomaly south-west of the existing Sherlock Bay Ni-Cu-Co Sulphide Mineral Resource intersected significant gold mineralisation associated with Ni-Cu-Co bearing semi-massive sulphides. The discovery of gold-bearing sulphide in the Scholl Shear demonstrates the potential for a significant gold discovery within the company's extensive tenement holdings at Sherlock Bay in the north-west Pilbara.
The discovery of gold mineralisation associated with semi-massive sulphides in the Scholl Shear clearly demonstrates the potential for a significant gold discovery within the Company's extensive tenement holdings at Sherlock Bay in the north-west Pilbara. The targeted Scholl Shear is parallel to, and only 80km to the north-west of, the Mallina Shear, which hosts the world-class 10Moz Hemi gold discovery. The Scholl Shear occurs over 20km within the Company's tenements where no previous gold exploration has been conducted prior to the Company intersecting a 14.5m sulphide zone with gold grades of up to 2.7 g/t. The targeted aircore drilling program we have commenced will test six previously untested EM anomalies/sulphide targets, along strike from the gold-bearing zone intersected in SBDD010.
Sabre Resources Ltd has commenced an extensive aircore drilling program at Sherlock Bay in Western Australia's North-West Pilbara region to test a series of electromagnetic (EM) sulphide targets within the Scholl Shear Gold and Ni-Cu-Co corridor. The program aims to explore the potential for a significant gold discovery within the company's extensive tenement holdings at Sherlock Bay. The targeted Scholl Shear, parallel to the Mallina Shear which hosts the world-class 10Moz Hemi gold discovery, presents a promising opportunity for gold mineralisation. The aircore drilling program will test six previously untested EM anomalies/sulphide targets, along strike from the gold-bearing zone intersected in previous drilling. The company's ambitions include identifying gold and nickel-copper-cobalt massive sulphide mineralisation and potentially conducting deeper RC and/or diamond drilling based on the results of the aircore drilling program.
