LARVOTTO REPORTS HIGH-GRADE DRILL RESULTS AT HILLGROVE

Clarks Gully and Bakers Creek drilling highlights significant mineralisation

Larvotto Resources Limited (ASX: LRV, Germany: K6X) has announced strong results from recent drilling at its 100%-owned Hillgrove Project in New South Wales. The program targeted both Clarks Gully and Bakers Creek, confirming high-grade gold-antimony mineralisation and identifying new zones for further exploration.

Clarks Gully RC Drilling Highlights

Drilling at Clarks Gully returned several standout results, including:

  • 7m @ 22.28g/t AuEq from 6m
  • 7m @ 9.34g/t AuEq from 9m
  • 6m @ 6.28g/t AuEq from 5m
  • 4m @ 7.47g/t AuEq from 2m

The results confirmed mineralisation extending down-dip and identified a new zone of mineralisation south of the current open pit design. Assays for 14 of the 54 completed drill holes are still pending and are expected in the coming weeks.

Bakers Creek Diamond Drilling Progress

At Bakers Creek, diamond drilling has intersected visible free gold within the Big Reef mineralised zone. This builds upon the spectacular March 2024 result of 31m @ 65.8g/t Au from 244m, highlighting the potential for significant mineral additions to the Hillgrove resource. Current drilling aims to intersect deeper mineralised zones.

Managing Director Ron Heeks commented:


The exciting Clarks Gully drill results released today, including an intercept of 7m @ 22.3 g/t AuEq, should extend and further define the current 266kt AuEq Mineral Resource at the high-grade Clarks Gully deposit. The drilling has confirmed the continuation of mineralisation down-dip into a previously under-explored zone which sits below and along strike from the current Clarks Gully open pit mine plan. The excellent results indicate another deeper round of drilling is required to confirm and extend the mineralisation beyond the current resource.

A new mineralised zone, tested by several first-pass holes, has also identified mineralisation associated with a geochemical anomaly immediately south of the planned open pit at Clarks Gully. Further drilling of this area will be undertaken to further define the mineralisation.

The current drilling program at Hillgrove represents an exciting phase as we continue to intersect high-grade gold and antimony mineralisation at Clarks Gully. We eagerly await the remaining RC assays.
