⛏️ Kula Gold Limited is pleased to announce the start of a new reverse circulation (RC) drilling program to define the lateral and vertical extent and resource potential of Kaolin and Halloysite within the Boomerang Prospect at the company’s Marvel Loch-Airfield Gold Project at Southern Cross.

Highlights:

  •  Up to 62 holes to define lateral Kaolin and Halloysite extent and test underlying gold potential.

Approximately 3,500m in around 62 vertical holes is planned to test the kaolin and halloysite resource potential at Boomerang. A coincident gold target will also be investigated by extending each hole 10-15m past the kaolin horizon into fresh rock below the weathered zone.

The Boomerang Kaolin Prospect was generated earlier in 2021 following all three initial RC holes (21BMRC001 – 21BMRC003) intersecting +42m average vertical thickness of white kaolin clays from 5m depth. RC hole 21BMRC001 returned 10m @ 7% Halloysite from 40m depth (8.8m true thickness) within a 55m downhole intercept of kaolin from 5m depth (refer ASX Release 13th July 2021).

Kula geologists are on site along with Stark Drilling for the program which is expected to take 10 days to complete.

Assays will be completed by Bureau Veritas (Adelaide) and Halloysite by CSIRO Adelaide. Results will be reported as they become available noting the current longer than usual lead time for results.
