Top 5 Elizabeth Hill drill holes to watch – what assays could realistically deliver.
Just been reviewing the phase 2 assay information from November with my AI friend.
EH is a shoot-controlled, narrow-vein silver system, so the key is where silver occurs, not how many holes show traces.
1️⃣ 25WCDD025 – Highest upside
Why it matters:
Deep hole (174–209 m) below and south of the historic underground mine.
Geology:
Extensive sheeted + stockwork veining and strong silicification over ~34 m.
What this usually means:
A broad altered corridor with potential for stacked, narrow high-grade veins inside it.
Assay expectation:
Not uniform grade – expect low background + possible very high-grade spikes. This is classic “ore-probability” territory.
2️⃣ 25WCDD023 – Fault corridor test at depth
Why it matters:
Deep (195–217 m), adjacent to the Munni Munni fault, directly below the mine sequence.
Geology:
Quartz–carbonate sheeted veins + strong granite silicification.
What this usually means:
You’re in the main fluid conduit where ore shoots often sit slightly off-fault.
Assay expectation:
Likely narrow but potentially strong silver intervals, especially if sulphides or native silver are present within the vein set.
3️⃣ 25WCDD014 – Confirmed native silver (big deal)
Why it matters:
Three separate intervals of 1–2% native silver between ~54–75 m.
Geology:
Multiple stacked native silver occurrences near the top of the historic mine sequence.
Why this is important:
EH historically mined native silver, often over decimetre widths. Multiple hits in one hole strongly suggest stacked shoots, not a one-off.
Assay expectation:
Bonanza-grade silver over narrow widths is very realistic here. This is the cleanest “EH-style” hole so far.
4️⃣ 25WCDD022 – Sulphide-linked silver at ~55 m
Why it matters:
Silver sulphides / oxidised native silver plus sphalerite (Zn sulphide).
Geology:
This is transitional to primary mineralisation, not just surface remobilisation.
Why it’s interesting:
Silver riding with base-metal sulphides often produces very high local grades, even if narrow.
Assay expectation:
Short but potentially punchy intercepts. Not bulk, but definitely “headline capable”.
5️⃣ 25WCDD020 – Multiple silver events + breccia
Why it matters:
Three silver occurrences, including silver sulphides with galena + sphalerite in a breccia zone.
Geology:
Breccias are good traps; multiple pulses mean the system was active more than once.
Assay expectation:
Patchy overall, but one narrow high-grade spike is plausible, especially in the brecciated interval.
What NOT to expect (important)
Thick, continuous ore over tens of metres ❌
Every hole returning bonanza grades ❌
Oxide-cap holes outperforming deeper primary zones ❌
EH is a high-grade, narrow-vein system. Success looks like a few very strong intercepts, not blanke
