⛏️ Kula Gold Limited reports anomalous rock chip samples of up to 498.3ppm copper (Cu) in gossanous rock samples on its 100% owned Westonia Project (Figure 1).
Kula’s project is situated less than 5km south of the Edna May Gold Mine (Figure 2) owned by Ramelius Resources (ASX: RMS).
HIGHLIGHTS – (View PDF)
- Maiden exploration program returns additional rock chip samples results up to 498.3ppm Copper and 15.5ppb PGE.
- Co-incident with magnetic structures.
- Gossanous outcrop located.
- Accelerated exploration program being expedited with Heli V-TEM in late November.
Further to the Maiden Exploration Program at Westonia (ASX Announcement on 30 August 2022), the Company has additional copper geochemical data that has been collated and reviewed and was completed with ~50m spaced geochemical samples taken on ~400m spaced lines.
Results are presented in Figure 3, with observed geostatistics for the sample population presented in Table 1.
In addition, two photographs with significant gossanous/outcrop copper results are provided (Figures 4 and 5).
This is an exciting set of results with copper elements in addition to the previously announced PGE (Figure 6) and the targeted gold so close to the long-standing producing Edna May Gold Mine.
The Board looks forward to reporting the next phase of exploration being the airborne Heli VTEM and magnetic survey that has been approved by the Board and scheduled for late November 2022.
