Exploration Permit Mineral (EPM)
-
HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE LARGE-SCALE PORPHYRY AND EPITHERMAL PROSPECTS.
-
RECENT RESULTS FROM NEARBY YANDAN PROJECT (198m @ 2.0 g/t Au and 214m @ 1.6 g/t Au) INDICATES EXCELLENT PROSPECTIVITY.
Background
An advanced highly prospective 8,000 hectare Exploration Permit for Minerals tenement located in the Drummond Basin region, Central Queensland.
Blue Hill Creek is a low sulphidation epithermal gold-silver deposit with 10,000m of structure identified and 2,500m of high grade, shallow and at- depth veins and vein breccias up to 8m wide mapped. Open in multiple directions.
Previously explored by BHP (ASX:BHP) in the 1980s and then by Dominion Mining Ltd (ASX:DOM), Blue Hill Creek is situated directly adjoining FEG’s Hill 212 Gold Project and the GBM Resources Ltd (ASX:GBZ) Mt Coolon Project.
Exploration included scout drilling (9 holes totalling 730m) and over 24 line km of CSAMT geophysics survey work.
Assays of surface samples returned grades up to 6.93g/t Au and 37.3g/t Ag
FEG’s completed an 11-hole (2,061m) phase 1 RC drill program circa 2,100m drilling. Although vein continuity to depth (approx. 350m) was confirmed no significant mineralisation was intersected.
