M3 Mining (ASX: M3M) has collected high-grade rock chip samples up to 65 g/t Au from historic workings at Broken Hill Bore prospect at Edjudina Gold Project approximately 150km northeast of Kalgoorlie, WA
" M3 Mining’s latest field programne at the Edjudina Gold Project has delivered valuable geological insights across several priority prospects. While resampling at El Capitan confirmed the presence of gold mineralisation, the results indicate that mineralisation is narrow, and further exploration efforts will be better focused elsewhere," Executive Director, Simon Eley, said.
"The reconnaissance work at Old Plough Dam has reinforced its prospectivity, with geological characteristics aligning with the ‘Twin Peaks’ mineralisation style, which has proven gold endowment in the region.
“Meanwhile, the Broken Hill Bore prospect shows promise, with rock chip sampling returning high-grade results, including 65 g/t Au, highlighting the potential for significant gold mineralisation. These findings will guide our next phase of exploration, with soil geochemistry and further mapping planned for early 2025.”
Building on the knowledge gained from this field campaign, M3 Mining will continue advancing the Edjudina Gold Project with a focus on the most prospective targets. Planned activities for early 2025 include:
• Soil geochemical surveys using portable XRF at Old Plough Dam to refine target areas for follow-up exploration.
• Alteration mapping to identify potential ‘Twin Peaks’-style mineralisation at Old Plough Dam.
• Geochemical pathfinder analysis at Broken Hill Bore to assess potential extensions to historic high-grade workings.
• Ongoing geological assessment to prioritise future drill targets.
M3 Mining remains committed to systematic and results-driven exploration at Edjudina, leveraging both historic data and new insights to uncover the project’s full potential. Further updates will be provided as new data becomes available.
