Triton Minerals Ltd. (ASX:TON) announced yesterday that although reverse-circulation drilling at the Nicanda Hill prospect of its Balama North project is still in the early stages, “very substantial graphite mineralization over a considerable distance” has already been intersected.
Highlights include:
- RC drill hole (GBNC0005) intercepts 220m of graphite mineralisation from surface
- Hole ended in graphite mineralisation and is open at depth
- Based on surface mapping and drilling the mineralised zone is likely to continue for some depth beyond the 220m.
- Graphite mineralization visually similar to previous Nicanda Hill diamond drilling
- The horizontal width of the graphite mineralization zone is approximately 750m wide
- Excellent correlation of drilling results with the VTEM survey data anomaly
- Drilling provides Triton further confidence in the long strike potential and graphite mineralization continuity on Nicanda Hill
- Diamond drilling program now underway to drill test full depth of the mineralization zone
