Brief synopsis:
Bondi completes additional phase one sampling at Murphy 09:42, Friday, 18 September 2009
Sydney - Friday - September 18: (RWE Aust Business News) - Bondi Mining Ltd (ASX:BOM) has completed additional study and sampling of the phase one drilling at the Murphy Project in the Northern Territory. The aim of this additional work was to establish the overall copper and uranium signature of the hematite-chlorite altered interval drilled in MURD002. Highlights: * 94m of additional core samples from the wide hematite-chlorite altered zone intersected in MURD002 have now been sampled and submitted to the lab, with results expected within two weeks. * The presence of copper minerals chalcocite and chalcopyrite has been noted in the new sampling. * Previously reported intervals (copper up to 1.04pc and U3O8 up to 107.4ppm) were based on sampling of only 35pc of the 157m downhole intersection (about 100m true width) of altered mafic intrusive. * Magnetic susceptibility measurements have confirmed that the alteration is associated with a drop in magnetic susceptibility of approximately two orders of magnitude. * 2009 phase two drilling program has begun. Drilling will test a number of targets in the western part of the Murphy tenement area.
