Kalgoorlie Gold launches major drilling Blitz at Pinjin Project

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining (ASX:KAL) has mobilised for an intensive reverse circulation drilling campaign at its flagship Pinjin Gold Project.

The drill rig departed Kalgoorlie this morning, with the first hole slated to be drilled at the Kirgella Gift prospect within the next 24 hours.

This expansive programme, scheduled to run for approximately six weeks, comprises 41 drill holes totalling 6,850m.

The primary objective is to advance two high-priority targets: the Kirgella Gift-Providence deposits and the Lighthorse prospect.

At Kirgella Gift-Providence, the company has planned 22 holes for 3,600m of strategic infill and extensional drilling.

The work is designed to bolster the existing JORC (2012) inferred mineral resource estimate of 2.34 Mt @ 1.0 g/t Au (76,000 oz) while testing for northern and western extensions to facilitate a future resource update.

KalGold will execute 19 RC holes at Lighthorse to tighten existing coverage and investigate extensions coincident with sub-audio magnetic magnetometric conductivity features.

The momentum is set to continue beyond this RC programme, with preparations already underway for subsequent diamond drilling at Kirgella Gift and first-pass aircore drilling targeting a distinct flexure in the Laverton Tectonic Zone to the east.

At the time of reporting, Kalgoorlie Gold Mining’s share price was $0.039.
