70 AC holes completed by this announcement with a priority batch sent from Crean.
There are probably more sentinel interpreted holes on here than actually drilled. Quite likely most adjacent to section 5/8 and Section 7 have been drilled on strike of the carbonatite intersections.
Previous holes were mostly drilled N and the aircore may have been the same.
Section 7
Carbonatite in blue is some 500m S-N on this section.
AC 200m east doesn't cover this entire zone perhaps because holes RC24-26 didn't get carbonatite. Could have been extended a bit further south.
To the west the entire 500+m zone was probably covered though RC 91-3 suggest carbonatite to the N.
Higher grade for "section 7" has some potential over a 300m zone.

Section 5/8 indicated width potential around 100m with some narrow good grade (Hole 8) in lower grade halo.
Somewhere to the west the carbonatite pinches out to a thin dyke. Continuity along this entire zone needs more drilling to be confirmed

Hole 12 NSA.
This section looks like it may be a model for the 2+Kms west from section 7. More dyke like than Luni but if there is a consistent mineralised zone like Hole 8 there is potentially a significant volume to make a deposit.
To the west of 5/8 there appears to have been 4 detailed fences at 200m spacings with relative close spaced holes along them (40-60m mainly).
I hope the last 3 drill holes visible on sentinel reflect carbonatite and possibly more interesting to the gun. (Red on next image).
Interesting that there appear to be quite a few AC holes south of the interpreted carbonatite - pinching and swelling would be nice if there is grade attached.
16m dyke ~350m down hole. Model for further east? Thinning at depth though hole 7 shows otherwise.
Sub economic grade and thickness but good to show some continuity in possibly both directions (West towards McIllroy??).

EMILY
Less certainty about the density of aircore drilling here.
Pretty much what I have put out before with a zone some 1+Km EW and some 700m NS open to the south onto WA1 ground.
Grades High Purple to Red to Orange to Yellow to White NSA.
AC along pre existing lines except in the east where holes may have been testing for NW extensions to Luni on ENR ground.
Still 400m spacing so maybe some 200m infill especially adjacent to 98 and 136.

Proximity to Luni would make this a nice potential satellite deposit.
Could even be related more directly to Luni.
