Westgold Managing Director and CEO Wayne Bramwell commented:

“Westgold is mining two zones at Beta Hunt now – Fletcher will be the third.

 

“We already have access into Fletcher and once drilled, it will be an additional and independent source of ore production.

 

“At Mason, it is too early to speculate on its scale and significance. The historical drilling results here are encouraging, with some of the better results including 19.00m @ 10.73g/t Au, 35.35m @ 3.50g/t Au, 38.00m @ 2.87g/t Au and 5.20m @ 20.67g/t Au.

 

“Our early interpretation is Mason is the faulted offset of the Fletcher Zone, and if so would take the combined strike length to circa 4km.

 

“Unlocking value at Beta Hunt requires building a robust understanding of the various Beta Hunt orebodies with a long term mine plan focussed on maximising cash flow.

 

“The next step is to deliver a mineral resource estimate for Fletcher which we expect to announce to the market late in Q4 FY25.”
