Catalina Resources (ASX:CTN) has commenced a reverse circulation drilling program at its Breakaway Dam Copper Project, targeting a confirmed copper-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide system.
The initial exploration phase is slated to comprise 12 drill holes totalling approximately 3,160m.
The program is specifically designed to follow up on recent geophysical work and prior drilling, which suggested that earlier efforts may have only intersected the margins of the mineralised plates rather than the higher-grade core.
A primary focus of this campaign is the drill hole BDCRC26016, which serves as a multi-plate downhole electromagnetic conductor test.
By integrating DHEM data with geological observations, the company aims to test for potential sulphide thickening and enhanced metal tenor within the system.
