Chief Executive Officer, Luke Cox, commented:

“Once again, we are pleased to see such strong support from new and existing investors as we forge ahead with our exploration drilling programmes at our Murchison Gold Projects, including those hosted within granted mining leases situated within trucking distance of two hungry operating mills and a very strong gold price.

“Concurrent with this period of drilling at the Murchison Gold Projects, we aim to commence geophysics across our West Arunta Project, delivering high priority targets in this tier one jurisdiction.

 

“We expect a sustained period of news flow over the coming months, especially as assay results begin to be received from our recent 7,000m RC drilling campaign at the Island Gold Project.”
