Special Report: Tambourah Metals is mobilising an aircore rig for a 2000m program to test high-grade supergene gold at Baxters Sth, following up on high-grade gold and fresh rock discovery in the WA Murchison.

Baxters South sits in the Peak Hill Mineral Field, 160km north of Meekatharra and 4km south of the Harmony gold deposit, amid renewed exploration around the old Peak Hill gold operations, now owned by Great Boulder Resources.

Tambourah Metals (ASX:TMB) says the first phase will comprise aircore holes on 40m centres around the recent reverse circulation (RC) intersections, covering 160m by 160m.=

The program will systematically test the weathered zone overlying shales of the Ravelstone Formation.

The two-hole RC program completed in September returned 4m at 41.7g/t gold from 55m and 6m at 9.5g/t gold from 64m in the supergene zone, results which helped Tambourah buck the trend of the broader materials sector.

The first intersection included a particularly high-grade 1m at 146.5g/t gold from 55m, while the second included 1m at 16.3g/t from 67m.

Those results followed a historical intersection of 8m at 5.05g/t gold from 67m in a 1990s hole, which the RC program targeted.

The company’s latest drill cross-section also highlights a deeper intersection of 3m at 35.5g/t gold from 169m in RC hole BXRC26001, including 1m at 7
