MB Gold commences major drilling at Marble Bar Project

MB Gold (ASX:MBG) mobilised for its maiden exploration campaign, announcing the commencement of a major reverse circulation drilling programme at the highly prospective Marble Bar Gold Project.

The arrival of the drill rig in Western Australia's Pilbara region marks an operational milestone for the company, as it begins a targeted 6,000-metre mission to unlock the precinct's untapped mineral potential.

The campaign is primarily focused on the high-priority Twin Veins and Douglas Find prospects.

The sites are strategically positioned within a structurally complex zone on the northwest margin of the Mt Edgar Batholith, a geological setting often associated with gold mineralisation.

By leveraging a combination of modern exploration techniques and compelling historical intercepts, the programme is designed to delineate the scale of the gold systems and refine the company's regional geological model.

"The commencement of drilling marks a pivotal moment for MB Gold," stated CEO Logan Barber.

"We are genuinely excited to have a rig turning on-site following months of rigorous preparatory work.

The programme is a critical step in our strategy to drive discovery and define a clear pathway toward resource delineation."

The drilling phase is estimated to span approximately six to seven weeks.

At the time of reporting, MB Gold’s share price was $0.18.
