Recharge Metals plans 30,000m drilling program at Sunset Well gold project
Recharge Metals has added the Sunset Well gold project to its portfolio.
It plans 30,000 metres of drilling, the first exploration drilling at Prospero and the nearby trend since the mid-1990s.
The work will test known gold deposits and look for more.
The results could help show how much potential the project has.
Recharge Metals plans a 30,000m inaugural drilling program at its Sunset Well gold project in Western Australia.
The program will target extensions to high-grade lodes and seek to grow the shallow open-pit resource at the Prospero deposit.
Drilling along the Prospero trend will follow up high-tenor anomalies identified by reconnaissance drilling in the 1990s.
Sunset Well includes a historic Prospero resource of 94,500 ounces of gold.
The project covers 220km², including a 15km stretch of the prospective Prospero shear zone.
