Castle Minerals (ASX: CDT) has intersected a new gold zone at the Julie West prospect in Ghana, identified from a wide spaced reverse circulation drilling program.
Highlights include:
- 20m @ 1.79g/t gold from 44m, including 6m @ 5.02g/t gold from JWRC 192; and
- 15m @ 1.30g/t gold from 10m in JWRC 181.
Castle used detailed geochemical sampling to discover the concealed gold mineralisation, which is hosted within altered and pyritic mafic volcanic rocks.
Mike Ivey, managing director, said, "We now have an additional style of mineralisation to target and are very keen to recommence drilling to follow up these results and test other anomalies that we have recently generated."
The Julie West prospect is within the Julie-Jang Trend of Castle’s Wa Project in north west Ghana where Castle will shortly commence 35,000 metres of drilling to test numerous gold targets.
