Antipa Minerals Ltd has unveiled the final assays from phase two 2023 diamond drilling at its wholly owned Minyari Dome Gold-Copper Project in Western Australia's Paterson Province, which point to significant gold discoveries with copper to boot.
A second diamond core drill hole at the GEO-01 prospect returned 27 metres at 0.7 g/t gold from 34 metres downhole, including an 8-metre section at 1.4 g/t gold and a notable 1 metre at 4.8 g/t gold. Another section showed 23 metres at 0.8 g/t gold and 0.02% copper, pointing to the presence of high-grade gold and copper mineralisation.
Additionally, initial results from the Tetris target's 873-metre diamond core drill hole indicated promising base and precious metal mineral system signatures, including 6.7 metres at 0.54% zinc, 0.12% lead and 1.0 g/t silver, revealing the diversity of mineralisation within the project area.
