Aussie miners to drill in S/Phikwe

According to a statement by the Australian Stock Exchange-listed company, the objective of the 3.9-kilometre long drilling is to provide an initial test of the coincident geophysical and geochemical targets.

"In particular the programme will assess whether these extensive anomalies are caused by nickel mineralisation similar to that encountered in the 1970s drilling," the statement said. "Drilling will also be undertaken at the Kgwedi prospect following receipt and analysis of soil geochemical assays and the results of ongoing ground EM (electro-magnetic) surveys."
