Miramar Resources has doubled the gold exploration target for its Gidji Joint Venture (JV) Project, located roughly 15km north of Kalgoorlie-Boulder in Western Australia (WA).
The revised estimate reflects results from recent drilling across targets including Marylebone, Blackfriars, Powerline, Highway and Railway
The latest exploration target is based on data collected from a subset of the company’s drilling, which included 939 aircore holes totalling 53,362m, 26 reverse circulation (RC) holes covering 4,007m and one diamond hole at 190.75m. Miramar also used historical drilling data. The updated estimate does not take into account areas such as 8 Mile, Boorara North, Lake or Claypan due to recent limited drilling activity.
Drill spacing averaged 100m × 50m, extending to 400m × 100m in certain locations. Aircore drilling depths ranged from 11m to 108m, with an average depth of 56m. From August 2021, Miramar adjusted its sampling procedures to reduce the inclusion of overlying paleochannel sediments.
