EL 9039 - Gold, Critical Minerals and Base Metal Project
Delta Gold is a Natural Resources Exploration & Mining Company with an advanced Exploration Flagship Project at Chakola NSW having a JORC defined Resource of 436,000oz* Gold (equiv) from surface to approximately 100 metres depth within the highly prospective Lachlan Fold Belt of NSW.
The Chakola Project incorporates a Volcanic Massive Sulphide Deposit consisting of Gold, Critical Minerals including Silver, Copper, Zinc, Tellurium, Molybdenum and Base Metal Lead. There are also other identified potential targets within the exploration lease and as such the Company will be pursuing futher geophysical surveys and exploration drilling with a view to increasing the resource substantially.
*ASX:CMY Announcement 4 April 2007 - 4.63Mt @ 2.9g/t Gold equivalent containing 436,000oz Gold equivalent - This Gold equivalent resource estimate may vary due to changes in commodity values over time.
Previous exploration work has been concentrated on the Harnett prospect which is the principle prospect with in the EL License and where a gold, critical minerals and a base metals resource will allow a Development Application for an economic open cut mining operation in the future. It should be noted that the Harnett Prospect is both open at depth and strike. The discovery confirms the potential to locate similar deposits in the license and is providing the impetus to search for additional mineralisation.
The company is reviewing all recent and historical exploration data of previous exploration in the Chakola area. Delta Gold's work will inlcude an assessment of the historical database, re-interpretation of existing airborne magnetics and radiometric survey data, photo geological studies and geological mapping with a view in the near term to lodge a DA- Mining Lease Application.
