Taiton Resources (ASX:T88) is in the final stages of organising drill contractors and the preparation of drill pads at the Highway Project in the Gawler Craton of South Australia.
Taiton is also awaiting assay imminent results from the maiden drilling program completed in September. The company says the assay results may create more opportunities for drilling within the area of the first drill program.
There are approved drill sites that were not a priority in the last reconnaissance drilling program.
The company has now received approval from the Department of Mines and Energy in South Australia for its second drilling program at Merino prospect in accordance with Environment Protection and Rehabilitation (EPEPR) requirements.
The drilling program is to test the coherent molybdenum anomaly that was identified from the UltraFine Soil Survey completed in August.
The approval of the updated EPEPR allows the company to drill up to a total of 20 additional locations. The aim is to test the result of the UltraFine Soil Survey which was released on the 26 September 2023.
Taiton Resources is an early stage mineral exploration and development company with a portfolio of projects across South Australia and Western Australia, comprising the Highway Project, Lake Barlee Project; and Challenger West Project.
