Echo Resources to drill gold-in-soil anomaly in Western Australia


(MENAFN- ProactiveInvestors)

Echo Resources (ASX:EAR) has identified a strong gold-in-soil anomaly the Gnaeus Prospect near its wholly-owned Julius Gold Discovery in Western Australia.

The 1000-metre long anomaly is significantly stronger than the gold-in-soil response over buried gold mineralisation at Julius.

Julius and Gnaeus are located within the Yandal Province one of Australia’s largest goldfields hosting several multi-million ounce gold deposits including those at Northern Star Resources’ (ASX:NST) Jundee and Gold Fields’ (JSE:GFI NYSE:GFI) Darlot.

Eight samples from the central portion of the anomaly have returned more than 50ppb gold with a peak of 168ppb.

By comparison the gold-in-soil response over buried bedrock gold mineralisation at Julius is less than 2ppb.

The company plans to carry out drilling to follow-up on this target which may mark the location of a new gold mineralised system.
