Goldman Promising Gold Assays Found at Siberian Tiger Prospect
Metal Hawk Limited (ASX:MHK) has announced significant high-grade gold assay results from the new Siberian Tiger prospect at Leinster South.
The highest assay result was 20.2 g/t Au, with a total of 16 samples grading over 1.0 g/t Au.
These rock chips were collected during an initial reconnaissance mapping trip at Leinster South, following up on a 482 ppb gold-in-soil anomaly from historical sampling. Metal Hawk has completed a tighter spaced 50m x 200m soil survey and further geological mapping and sampling is ongoing.
Siberian Tiger is situated along the southeastern limb of the Agnew Greenstone Belt, 15km from the Lawlers mining centre (historical production of 4.5M oz @ 5g/t Au). This area has seen minimal previous exploration, with no historical rock chip assays or drilling results.
Best rock chip assay results:
- 24DR158: 20.2 g/t Au
- 24DR152: 6.7 g/t Au
- 24DR198: 6.3 g/t Au
- 24DR203: 3.7 g/t Au
- 24DR169: 3.4 g/t Au
Metal Hawk’s Managing Director Will Belbin commented:
We could not have wished for a better start to exploration at Leinster South and we are thrilled with these outstanding results of up to 20g/t gold at Siberian Tiger. It is rare these days to find new discoveries of outcropping gold in the northeast goldfields, let alone only 15km from a mature, world class mining camp such as Agnew-Lawlers.
