Rooster Talk Episode 59 is with Andrew Paterson, Managing Director of Great Boulder Resources Limited (ASX: GBR)
This is an update on the Side Well Project which is about the recent drilling results with the discovery of new mineralisation at Ironbark.
Great Boulder Resources appear to have a mineralised province with Side Well as the system that is producing metals in Ironbark, which is distinctly different to what is happening at Mulga Bill. Andrew shares with us why this appears to be the case.
Ironbark is 1.4km to the east of Mulga Bill. The drilling results may be showing that there is a series of potential pods of mineralisation which will help the overall picture of potential for Side Well.
An intercept of 20m @ 3.05 g/t of gold should not be ignored. In any project, this is a clear indication of mineralisation that is not isolated. In my opinion, the discovery of these kinds of drill intercepts may be an early indication of a level of gold endowment which would excite any company. The excitement stems from the fact that it is within a province that has already shown continuous mineralisation at Mulga Bill.
If you are isolated without Mulga Bill, it would make sense to question the potential. However, if you are in a decent system, you would expect numerous deposits nearby.
What is interesting with the results coming out from the announcements is that there is a clear horizon where the gold is being identified.
It is still early to make a decision of the future potential, but it is looking promising. The presence of copper at Mulga Bill and the lack of copper (currently) at Ironbark is determining the perception of difference at Side Well. It is this that should be noted for audiences.
