United Homes Group stock plunges after Nikki Haley, directors resign
PERTH - Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM and Aquis:WSBN) announced Friday that reverse circulation drilling will commence on October 21 at its Red Setter Gold Dome Project in Western Australia, located 20km southwest of the Telfer gold mine.
The company reported that diamond drilling on the second hole (25RSDD002) has been completed at a depth of 950 meters, with the drill rig now moving to a planned 500-meter hole located 1.6km north of the first two holes. According to the company statement, core samples from the second hole contained multiple zones of fracturing with pyrite and will be sent to ALS Laboratories in Perth for analysis.
The third hole (25RSDD003) is targeting a follow-up on previous drilling that intercepted 7 meters with 2g/t gold and 0.38% copper from a depth of 273 meters.
A Schramm T685i reverse circulation rig from Core Drilling Services will be mobilized to the site this weekend to complement the diamond drill rig already in operation. The RC rig has been contracted for an initial 5,000 meters of drilling and will be used to generate more target angles into the Red Setter Dome, additional water bores, and to target shallower copper-gold intercepts from 117 meters reported in 2023 drilling.
"Diamond drilling is now on double shift and with the Reverse Circulation drill rig arriving this weekend we are ramping up activities to expedite exploration," said Ed Mead, Wishbone Gold WA director, in the press release.
The Red Setter project is situated near Greatland Gold Plc’s (AIM and ASX:GGP) Telfer gold mine in the Paterson Province of Western Australia.
