The potential of the Tumblegum South project near Meekatharra in WA is growing with Star Minerals (ASX:SMS) recording infill drilling assays up to 5m grading 30.91g/t gold from 21m, including 2m at 75.45g/t.
Shallow, closed-spaced infill drilling was carried out at a density sufficient to delineate geological continuity of mineralisation to a high degree of confidence.
Results from 22 of 38 holes validate the geological model underpinning the resource of 45,000oz gold completed in 2023.
“We are pleased to see the quality of these first results from the Tumblegum South gold project drilling program,” MD Ashley Jones said.
“With the standout intercept so far being 5m at around an ounce of gold per tonne, Tumblegum South is proving to be an even stronger project, with a quality gold deposit.”
The company aims to start mining in Q1 2026 at Tumblegum South, which is near underutilised mills owned by Westgold Resources (ASX:WGX) and Catalyst Metals (ASX:CYL).
