Forrestania Resources Ltd. has confirmed multiple broad, high-grade gold intercepts following further reverse circulation drilling from the British Hill project in Western Australia, enhancing structural understanding across the deposit.
The company recently received additional assay results for its 19-hole RC drilling program, comprising 4,246 metres completed across the site. The campaign was designed to test targets along the eastern limb of the geological system while refining the overall structural model of the deposit.
Assay results identified significant mineralisation, with several drill holes returning wide zones of high-grade gold. Notable shallow intercepts include 16 metres at 5.77 grams per tonne (g/t) gold from 12 metres in hole 26BHRC0048, alongside 8 metres at 3.34 g/t gold from 22 metres in hole 26BHRC0047.
Forrestania Resources’ Chairman David Geraghty said: “Another demonstrably strong batch of results has reinforced our confidence in British Hill.
“British Hill is increasingly demonstrating the attributes of a potentially valuable near-term gold development asset for Forrestania.”
Deeper drilling also delivered strong results across multiple horizons. Hole 26BHRC0050 intersected 9 metres at 5.48 g/t gold from 202 metres, in addition to 7 metres at 2.53 g/t gold from 170 metres. Hole 26BHRC0046 hit 11 metres at 4.19 g/t gold from 210 metres, while hole 26BHRC0059 yielded 15 metres at 2.40 g/t gold from 171 metres and 4 metres at 5.42 g/t gold from 199 metres.
Standout narrow high-grade zones were also recorded, led by hole 26BHRC0053 which returned 2 metres at 13.36 g/t gold from 231 metres, within a broader mineralised sequence that included 11 metres at 1.08 g/t gold from 254 metres. Hole 26BHRC0045 recorded 2 metres at 4.00 g/t gold from 50 metres depth.
Reported mineralised intervals were calculated allowing for up to two metres of internal dilution at a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off grade. The company confirmed that reported intercept widths represent down-hole lengths rather than true widths.
The latest assay data confirms structural continuity along the eastern limb of the deposit, providing valuable geological insight to guide subsequent exploration phases across the project.
