Anchor announces antimony resource

More drilling planned

MONDAY, 23 NOVEMBER 2009

 

Anchor Resources Limited (ASX Code: AHR) is pleased to announce that the resource estimation for the Wild Cattle Creek antimony deposit, following Anchor’s maiden drilling program, is now complete. Additional drilling is now being planned to enhance and expand this resource.

Highlights

 

  • Current resource of 17,500t of contained antimony metal (at 0.5%Sb cut-off)
  • Anchor drilling extended the main zone resource >120m down plunge
  • Further data is required to incorporate gold-tungsten into main zone resource
  • New antimony-tungsten peripheral stringer mineralisation not yet included
  • Planning of next drill phase is well advanced

 

Managing Director, Trevor Woolfe, commented that “The antimony resource resulting from our recent drilling program provides a strong base for further resource expansion drilling in the New Year. Additional work will also be done to quantify the economic potential of antimony-tungsten-gold mineralisation within, and adjacent to, the main zone.”
