Meeka Reports Thick, High-Grade Gold in First Drilling at Turnberry North
Meeka Metals Limited (ASX: MEK) (“Meeka” or the “Company”) is pleased to report assays from Turnberry North drilling at the Murchison.
New assays from the northeastern flank of Turnberry include:
• 25m @ 1.88g/t Au from 38m including 9m @ 3.93g/t Au (25TBRC045)
• 6m @ 1.03g/t Au from 71m (25TBRC046) and
14m @ 0.97g/t Au from 95m including 5m @ 1.71g/t Au (25TBRC046)
.
Initial drilling on the north eastern flank of Turnberry, at the Murchison Gold
Project (“Murchison”), has intersected broad zones of high-grade gold outside
the planned Stage 1 open pit, likely to expand the Resource, extend open pit
mining and add to underground production.
• Thick high-grade drill results from the north eastern flank of Turnberry
include:
o 22m @ 3.25g/t Au from 125m including 10m @ 6.03g/t Au (25TBRC052)
o 36m @ 1.07g/t Au from 32m including 11m @ 1.94g/t Au (25TBRC053) and
63m @ 1.02g/t Au from 90m (25TBRC053)
o 48m @ 1.26g/t Au from 117m including 17m @ 2.53g/t Au (25TBRC046)
o 25m @ 1.88g/t Au from 38m including 9m @ 3.93g/t Au (25TBRC045)
o 34m @ 1.13g/t Au from 30m including 6m @ 3.59g/t Au (25TBRC049)
• This is the first drilling at Turnberry North by Meeka with results expanding
mineralisation to the east and down-dip below the planned Stage 1 Turnberry
North open pit optimised at A$2,350/oz.
• These strong results highlight potential to grow the Resource and Reserves,
and will likely extend the Stage 1 open pits beyond the initial ~2 years
previously planned. The higher-grade zones in fresh rock below the pit are also
likely to grow underground production.
• Underground diamond drilling commenced at Andy Well in the September
2025 quarter with results expected in the December 2025 quarter onwards.
In addition to these positive drill results, operational performance at the
Murchison exceeded the ramp up schedule in the Feasibility Study (ASX: 12
Dec 2024) with September 2025 quarter gold production higher than
planned.
The mines and processing plant are performing well and continue to
ramp up.
Further detail on operational performance in the September 2025
quarter will be provided in the quarterly activities report.
Commenting on the drilling, Meeka’s Managing Director Tim Davidson said:
“Given the pervasive nature of high-grade gold in this drilling, the first by Meeka in this area, the planned Stage 1 open pit at Turnberry North is currently being expanded to capture this additional mineralisation.
.
This drilling also highlights increased grade in the fresh rock below the planned pit, including intervals of 10m @ 6.03g/t Au and 17m @ 2.53g/t Au, and is likely to grow
underground production.”
