there would be an announcement but it would go back a few years, found the following after some looking. Like I said they never really hit anything significant, very slow to get through exploration programs.

Southern Cross Assay Results Update
Highlights:
Single‐metre split assay results returned from Boordarding (E77/2584)
Deep intercepts confirm historic diamond and RC drilling targets
Prospect remains open along strike and at depth
Xantippe Resources Limited (ASX: XTC) (Xantippe, XTC, or the Company) is pleased to
announce the return of split assays from reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Boodarding
Prospect.
The three RC holes drilled at Boodarding followed up the abandoned drilling attempted last
year and aimed to test historic diamond and RC drilling which intercepted anomalous gold at
approximately 100‐150m below surface. All three holes were completed to depth with two
of the three RC holes intercepting gold mineralisation, confirming the potential existing at the
Boodarding Prospect on Xantippe lease E77/2584.
Boodarding Assay Results
Single‐metre fire assay (30g) results have been returned from anomalous composite samples
during RC drilling of the Boodarding Prospect earlier this year. The RC drilling proved difficult
with numerous water‐bearing fractures intercepted at depth, resulting in wet samples being
produced from approximately 100m onwards. Analysis of wet samples in these conditions
can sometimes produce uncertain results with gold potentially washed away. Due to the
uncertain nature of wet RC samples the resultant assay results are considered to be indicative
of mineralisation but do not provide an absolute measure of grade. Xantippe will use these
results for targeting purposes, with the aim of utilising diamond drilling techniques in the
future.
