Moonlight diamond rig sharpens Qld gold resource push

Moonlight Resources has initiated a new diamond drilling program at its Leo Grande gold prospect in central Queensland, following successful reverse-circulation (RC) drilling campaigns. The initial RC drilling identified significant gold mineralization, with results including grades up to 1.95 g/t over 19 meters. The new diamond drilling aims to gather detailed geological data to support the development of a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. The company's geological interpretation suggests Leo Grande is a shear-hosted gold system with potential for further mineralization along a 4 km structural corridor. Management highlights the importance of oriented core sampling to better understand the structures controlling gold deposits.

Moonlight diamond rig sharpens Qld gold resource push

Moonlight Resources has initiated a targeted diamond drilling program at its Leo Grande gold prospect in central Queensland, following a recent reverse-circulation (RC) drilling campaign. This new phase aims to gather detailed geological data to support the creation of a maiden resource estimate for the site. Previous RC drilling identified significant gold intersections, including up to 40 meters grading 1.3 grams per tonne of gold. The company now plans to use oriented diamond core drilling to enhance their understanding of the geological structure and mineralization patterns at Leo Grande, which they believe could extend over a larger area both along strike and at greater depths.
