Reverse circulation drilling has started at Kula Gold’s (ASX:KGD) Boomerang prospect at the Marvel Loch Project, near Southern Cross in Western Australia.
Drilling began last week for gold with testing including rare earth elements.
The Boomerang prospect is north of the Nevoria Gold Mine, east of the circa 2.4 million-ounce Marvel Loch Gold Mine and west of the Mt Palmer Gold Mine, all of which Kula notes has produced gold at more than 4 grams per tonne.
Kula Managing Director Ric Dawson says this reconnaissance RC drilling is a limited metreage program to test the gold UFF geochemistry anomaly following up a 1m at 2.56g/t intercept from previous drilling in the Boomerang kaolin deposit, as well as possible rare earths potential.
The company says the newly defined gold anomaly sits in a magnetic low.
Kula Gold is also continuing to further develop existing gold prospects in the Marvel Loch Project including the Stingray, Crayfish, Nevoria North, and G-Star prospects.
Results from recent UFF soils programs (gold and multi-element) will be reported in due course.
