Empire Metals Ltd - London-based resource exploration and development company - Confirms next phase of works at Eclipse gold project, located 55 kilometres north-east of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, has begun. Resource drilling at the Eclipse mine target will involve 200 metres of diamond drilling in three holes to duplicate recent reverse circulation drillholes. Expansion drilling at the new Jack's Dream discovery will involve 1,700 metres of reverse circulation drilling in 17 holes, focused on infill drilling adjacent to wide intersections of mineralisation and high-grade intercepts north-west of the Eclipse shaft.
"This next phase of drilling around the Jack's Dream old workings will be especially interesting to see if we can extend the wide near-surface mineralised intercepts we reported previously. There is potential for this to become a satellite to the Eclipse mine target, expanding the resources and open pit mining opportunity," says Director Mike Struthers.
