Auravelle Metals (ASX:AUV) has disclosed that reverse circulation (RC) drilling is set to commence next week at its Nuckulla Hill Gold Project in South Australia, with a planned program of more than 3,000 metres targeting three key areas across a greater-than-3-kilometre-long anomalous gold zone extending from Sheoak to Myall.

Key Points

RC drilling to commence next week at the Nuckulla Hill Gold Project, South Australia, covering a +3,000m program
Program targets infill and extension drilling at Sheoak, follow-up drilling at Myall and Sheoak North, and strike and depth extensions at Bimba
Previous RC drilling at Sheoak returned results including 21m at 3.1g/t Au from 54m, including 3m at 10.5g/t Au
Recent aircore results recorded 8m at 1.0g/t Au at Myall and 10m at 1.4g/t Au to end-of-hole at Sheoak North
The program is expected to take approximately two to three weeks, with assay results anticipated four to six weeks thereafter

Nuckulla Hill RC Drilling Program Details

The planned program of more than 3,000 metres will focus on three key areas within the Nuckulla Hill Gold Project. The first involves infill and extension drilling to further define high-grade mineralisation at Sheoak. The second consists of follow-up drilling to test recent aircore results at Myall, which returned 8m at 1.0g/t Au, and at Sheoak North, which returned 10m at 1.4g/t Au to end-of-hole. The third area targets strike and depth extensions at Bimba. The gold mineralisation at Nuckulla Hill sits within the same shear zone that hosts a neighbouring 1.6 million-ounce gold project held by Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX: BGD).

Previous RC Drilling Results at Sheoak

The most recent RC drilling campaign at Sheoak delivered a series of high-grade gold intersections, as previously disclosed by the company. Those results included 21m at 3.1g/t Au from 54m depth, incorporating a higher-grade interval of 3m at 10.5g/t Au. Additional intersections included 5m at 5.8g/t Au from 82m, with an internal interval of 1m at 20.2g/t Au, and 9m at 2.4g/t Au from 60m. The exploration results are based on information compiled by Competent Person Ms Anna Price, a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a full-time employee of Auravelle Metals Limited.

Program Timeline and Further Exploration Activities

Auravelle Metals disclosed that the RC drilling program is expected to take approximately two to three weeks to complete, with assay results anticipated four to six weeks after the program concludes. The company also stated that near-term activities will include results from a recently completed soil sampling program at the Crown Project in Western Australia, one-metre resample results from aircore drilling at Nuckulla Hill, and assay results from the upcoming RC program. Auravelle Metals describes itself as an Australian-based exploration company focused on the Nuckulla Hill project in the Gawler Craton, South Australia, and the Crown Project near Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.
