Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL) has confirmed strong chargeable anomalies ready for drill testing through results from IP geophysical surveying and target generation work at the company’s 100% owned Norseman project in Western Australia.
“Our first drill targets for the 2024 drilling season have been confirmed with strong geophysical anomalies close to known mineralisation. These drill targets are significant as they are based on IP surveying, which is specifically designed to look for disseminated sulphide, and on geological mapping which confirms the existence of the same rock sequence which hosts the Callisto deposit,” Managing Director Brad Underwood said.
“RC drilling is planned to commence in late April to test drill targets for economic mineralisation.
“The breakthrough discovery of the PGE-nickel Callisto deposit in 2022 has convincingly increased the probability of new discoveries within our highly prospective 255 square kilometre Norseman land position.
“We look forward to the start of the next round of drilling as we seek to develop a new mineral field in Western Australia.”
Follow up IP results from geophysical interpretation at the Callisto North prospect have confirmed large and strong chargeable responses on lines 6,452,000 and 6,453,200. New surveying on infill line 6,449,100 has identified a substantial IP anomaly just one km north of the Callisto deposit. Data from this line clearly implies the rocks have been structurally modified and are dipping to the west at this location. By comparison the Callisto deposit is flat lying before dipping to the east.
