Barton Gold Reports 17,600g/t Silver Intersected at Tarcoola’s Tolmer Prospect
Barton Gold (ASX:BGD)
Announced further high-grade assays from the Tolmer prospect at its South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project, where recent assays have confirmed high-grade gold and silver mineralisation.
Additional multi-element assays have identified further near surface mineralisation grading up to 17,600 g/t silver.

Barton Gold Reports 17,600g/t Silver Intersected at Tarcoola’s Tolmer Prospect
28,000 gram-metres silver drilled less than 50 metres from surface
.
Barton Gold (ASX:BGD, FRA:BGD3, OTCQB:BGDFF) (Barton or Company) is pleased to announce further high-grade assays from the Tolmer prospect (Tolmer) at its South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola), where recent assays have confirmed high-grade gold and silver mineralisation.
Additional multi-element assays have identified further near surface mineralisation grading up to 17,600 g/t Ag.
These assays also suggest the potential for new styles of high-grade mineralisation
at Tolmer, with the highest-grade silver assays appearing independent of gold and within a broad halo of anomalous lead mineralisation.
HIGHLIGHTS
• High-grade silver recently identified within Tarcoola Project’s new ‘Tolmer’ gold system
• Additional shallow aircore (AC) drilling results have returned further high-grade silver in association with a broad zone of anomalous lead, with new significant assays including:
Hole ID Interval / [depth] Including:
TBAC102 11m @ 0.73 g/t Au and 165 g/t Ag [9m] 3m @ 2.28 g/t Au and 439 g/t Ag [16m] TBAC130 17m @ <0.02 g/t Au* and 109 g/t Ag [7m]
6m @ <0.02 g/t Au* and 4,747 g/t Ag [46m]
3m @ 314 g/t Ag [9m]
1m @ 17,600 g/t Ag [46m]
* Note: field-based gold (Au) assays below detection limit of 0.02 g/t Au
• Previous significant gold and silver assays from Tolmer reverse circulation (RC) drilling include:1
Hole ID Interval / [depth] Including:
TBM0145 1m @ 2.16 g/t Au and 241 g/t Ag [79m]
TBM0161 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au and 82.8 g/t Ag [95m] 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au and 312 g/t Ag [97m]
• Gold and silver assays for 2,230m Tolmer reverse circulation (RC) drilling remain outstanding
,
Commenting on Tolmer’s latest high-grade silver assays, Barton MD Alexander Scanlon said:
.
“This is an exciting addition to our recent Tolmer discovery.
“This style of silver-dominant mineralisation appears to be previously unrecognised in the Tarcoola Goldfield, and the best intersection of 6m @ 4,747 g/t silver sits within 50 metres of surface – shallower than our neighbouring historical high-grade Perseverance Mine.
“That 6m @ 4,747 g/t silver intersection also sits within the transitional zone between the oxidised and fresh domains.
“The AC drilling was unable to penetrate the underlying hard quartzite fresh rock, and we have already completed 2,230 metres of RC drilling to test for extensions of gold and silver mineralisation below this horizon.
“Assays for the follow up RC drilling are expected shortly. We look forward to sharing the results.”
