Sorry just doing some light reading and - the bolded value has to be a mistake, right?Pioneer commenced drilling September 2011 at its Juglah Dome Gold Project. The project presents an exciting group of new targets generated through combining the skills of the prospector with those of the geologist. The last modern exploration was conducted some 10-15 years ago, where gold-in-soil geochemistry anomalies were successfully identified, but subsequent drilling failed to resolve a source for the gold.
Since the tenement's grant, Pioneer has completed mapping and additional soil geochemistry, but importantly the project's advancement has been greatly aided by a party of APLA-registered Kalgoorlie- based prospectors.
Over twelve nugget patches have been identified. When this information is combined with conventional gold (Au) and pathfinder element (copper (Cu), arsenic (As)) soil geochemistry; and then overlain on aeromagnetic imagery showing geological structures, a number of coincident targets are evident, and these are rated highly by Pioneer's geologists.
While mapping, rock chips were taken from an outcropping quartz vein. Three samples with visible gold were not submitted, however of 9 others, 5 returned gold values between 3.06g/t and 711g/t.
