TechGen Metals (ASX:TG1) has cleared the path for its next phase of mineral exploration, announcing the completion of earthworks at its 100% owned Mt Boggola Project.
Located in the prolific Ashburton and Edmund Basins, approximately 60km south of Paraburdoo, the project spans a massive $394km2 area targeting high-value copper, gold, and silver deposits.
The completion of access tracks and drill pads—conducted alongside heritage monitors—marks the final logistical hurdle before the commencement of an intensive drilling campaign.
The upcoming program is set to utilise a high-capacity universal drill rig, a versatile piece of machinery capable of executing both reverse circulation and diamond core drilling.
The dual capability is central to the company’s strategy: engineers will drill RC pre-collars before switching to diamond core "tails" to reach significant depths.
A key highlight of this phase is the reopening of four historic Newcrest drill pads (PB7, PB11, PB12, and PB13).
Managing Director Ashley Hood noted that these earthworks represent the "final piece of preparation" for the imminent arrival of the rig.
At the time of reporting, TechGen Metals’ share price was $0.045.
