04 Jun Blackham hits serious grades at Golden Age
REPUBLISHED FROM THEWEST.COM.AU
Blackham Resources’ Golden Age gold deposit at Wiluna is living up to its name, delivering some outstanding high-grade drill results. Underground drilling of the reef continues to produce impressive intercepts including 1.8 metres at 39.68 g/t gold, 2.6 metres at 21.74 g/t and 2.7 metres at 17.32 g/t gold.
Blackham’s Executive Chair, Milan Jerkovic said:
“While the Company is focussed on optimising the mine plan around our large Wiluna sulphide resource and transitioning to gold concentrate production, these results also deliver on our parallel free-milling strategy”.
“We aim to extend the high-grade Golden Age orebody to sustain or increase production and improve transitional cashflow over the next 12-18 months ahead of sulphides production from September 2021”.
Blackham owns the Wiluna mining centre in the north-eastern Goldfields of Western Australia which boasts a serious resource of nearly 6.4m ounces of gold going 2.13 grams per tonne.
Importantly, it has a high-grade core of 35.5Mt grading an impressive 3.90 g/t gold for 4.45m ounces.
