St George Mining Provides East Laverton Project Drilling Update

St George Mining (ASX: SGQ) (‘St George Mining’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide an update on the major drill programme to test gold and nickel sulphide targets at its 100% owned East Laverton Project in Western Australia.
A reverse circulation (RC) drilling programme is testing a portfolio of gold targets located across all greenstone belts at the East Laverton Project. A total of 40 drill holes have been completed to date for 2,934m drilled. A further 3,000m of drilling is planned to test additional gold targets.
St George Mining Executive Chairman, John Prineas said:

“After an unexpected delay, the diamond rig is back in action at Windsor and the drill bit is spinning furiously towards the first of the downhole EM targets to be tested.
The gold drilling is working its way through our portfolio of gold targets and we expect to start drilling soon at our most highly ranked target at Desert Dragon.”

At the Windsor nickel sulphide prospect, diamond drilling is being used to test an extremely powerful EM conductor (210,000 Siemens) for potential massive nickel sulphide mineralisation.
