The highlight was, of course, the drill testing of the first targets at the Eromanga Heavy Mineral Sands Project in South Australia. However, it is also significant that during this period, we validated new copper and gold targets in the Macquarie Arc that are now ready for drilling in the upcoming quarter. Looking further ahead, investors can now also look forward to the exploration team assessing the very promising silver and gold potential at the Firenze Project in Nevada.
With the Company well-funded, I’m excited about the exploration programs that will unfold over the next 12 months, and it is encouraging to see Altitude fulfil its mission of being an explorer committed to testing the very best high-value targets for our shareholders.
• Altitude Minerals secured the Firenze Silver & Gold Project in Nevada
• The project is a rare opportunity to drill test previously unexplored bonanza-grade silver and gold veins in a high-quality jurisdiction
Drill Tested: Eromanga HMS Project, South Australia
• Two new tenements, ‘Nilpinna’ and ‘Eddy’, highly prospective for Heavy Mineral Sands (HMS), were granted at the Eromanga Heavy Mineral Sands Project in South Australia
• After completing target validation, Altitude conducted a heritage survey and completed 114 holes for 4,072m of air-core drilling on the Nilpinna, Eddy, and Douglas Creek tenements
• 1,176m of samples from 3,170m drilled on Nilpinna EL7071 were retained, with 393m of high-priority samples submitted for assays, results expected in December
• Follow up detailed magnetic surveys to identify strandline extensions are being planned
Validated: Byrock Project, Macquarie Arc, NSW
