Corazon Mining (ASX:CZN) commenced its maiden diamond drilling program at the high-grade Two Pools Gold Project in Western Australia.
Following the receipt of final heritage survey approvals—a critical de-risking milestone—drill contractors have mobilised to the site to begin a targeted 1,000-metre program.
The campaign is specifically designed to resolve the structural complexities of the Two Pools system and test significant, largely untested northwest plunge extensions of the known mineralisation.
The program prioritises areas hosting historical intercepts, such as 12m at 8.0g/t gold and 8m at 7.8g/t gold, which validate the site’s high-grade discovery potential.
Unlike previous exploration efforts that averaged depths of less than 75m, Corazon’s current initiative includes at least one deep-diamond hole planned to reach a minimum of 400m.
The deeper testing aims to follow up on historical intercepts, including 5m at 3.6g/t gold from 236m, to define the system's depth potential.
Managing Director Simon Coyle emphasised that this program provides the essential technical foundation for long-term success, with the potential to materially expand the project’s mineralised footprint.
Results from this diamond drilling phase will directly inform a follow-up RC campaign targeting further strike and plunge extensions.
With drilling now underway, Corazon remains on track to receive initial assay results in the coming weeks.
At the time of reporting, Corazon Mining's share price was $0.16.
