PERTH, Western Australia, Sept. 29 /CNW/ -- /NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/ PERTH, Western Australia, Sept. 29 /CNW/ - Grade control drilling at the Nugget Hill pit indicates that the ore zones defined may extend beyond the limits of the current pit design. Grade control results outside current shell include: 6m @ 7.6 g/t Au 9m @ 2.59 g/t Au 4.5m @3.85 g/t Au 6m @ 5.7 g/t Au The 8m x 5m spaced grade control drilling has clearly defined ore trends that cut across the Nugget Hill pre-strip area in a NNE direction to the edge of the proposed pit and beyond. The areas to the north and south of the Nugget Hill pit have had limited drilling during the exploration phase due to limited access to low lying ground (see photo overleaf). Heavy mining machinery now available on site will be used to build causeways across the low lying ground to facilitate the extension of the grade control drill pattern. Initial Phase 1 mining will commence in October and waste rock will be used to provide access for drill rigs. If results are encouraging deeper resource definition drilling will be conducted. The grade control drilling results suggests an extension of ore zones between the Nugget Hill and Teberu pits and allows the potential amalgamation of the two pits, reduced mining costs and increases of ore tonnage and gold ounces.
