Aeris Resources (ASX:AIS) has discovered a new massive sulphide lens at its Bentley deposit in Western Australia.
The mid-tier base and precious metals producer says the Bacalar lens is close to existing life-of-mine infrastructure, and high-grade mineralisation has been reported from the initial five drill holes.
Aeris Resources says the lens's discovery highlights the significant potential for further discoveries at the Bentley deposit, and plans to conduct an extensive deep exploration drill program and resource estimate in the coming months.
Following the announcement, shares of Aeris Resources were up 4.85%.
