Back on topic, more or less.. I think a lot of people have overlooked the fact that the initial announcement concerning the assays received from the June drilling indicated that results from only 11 of the initial 29 drilling holes had been received with the remaining results due in the following 4 weeks.. So the next lot of 'U' results due are from the initial drilling conducted not from the August drilling and these should be arriving shortly.
As below from announcement on 24/7
Program Details
The drilling program conducted in June totaled 1,648 metres of RC drilling comprising 29
holes. The maximum hole depth was 98 metres with an average hole depth of 56 metres.
Ground conditions limited drilling production rates. This prompted the sensible decision
during the program to modify the average planned hole depth from 100 to 50 metres, allowing
a greater number of holes to be drilled and area covered in the planned time frame.
Twenty one drill holes were completed on the Henri anomaly where previous trenching work
yielded strong surface mineralisation. Two drill sections approximately 200 metres apart were
completed in addition to some isolated holes off section.
At Para, located approximately 800
metres south of Henri, two sections of
drilling with holes spaced at 100 metres
were completed. Each section comprised
three drill holes.
Two drill holes were completed on the
Tahbilk anomaly approximately 700
metres north of Henri.
All holes were geologically logged on site
by Western Metals staff. Sampling was
conducted on one metre intervals using
representative sampling techniques.
Delays in the arrival of downhole
geophysical equipment has postponed
the collection of downhole geophysical
data until August. All completed holes
have been cased to allow the geophysical
surveys to be conducted.
Samples were submitted to the ALS
Chemex laboratory in Tanzania for
preparation and then dispatched to their
Australian laboratory for analysis.
To date results from 11 of the Henri drill holes have been received by Western Metals, with
results of the remaining 18 holes expected in the coming four weeks.
