BPM Minerals Ltd (ASX: BPM) has commenced drilling at its Santy Gold Project, located in Western Australia’s Murchison Region, 430km north of Perth.

Drilling at the Santy Project has defined a very coherent gold anomaly, which is characterised as a 2.2km-long 25ppb gold anomalous trend contained within a prominent north-northeast trending shear zone.

The Santy Project comprises two granted Exploration Licences (EL’s) and two applications totalling 663 sq. km which remains largely underexplored, with 80% of granted tenure under transported cover.

The Santy Project lies within the Tallering Greenstone Belt, considered prospective for mesothermal gold and VMS base-metal mineralisation. Deposits within the Tallering Belt include high-grade deposits and historical production from the Mixy Deposit (65,000 Oz Au @ 4.3g/t Au), A-Zone: 63,000 Oz Au @ 2.1g/t Au and Royal Standard Mine (68,000t @ 13.1g/t Au).

The programme is expected to take three weeks to complete with holes to be completed at both gold and base-metal targets.
