The diamond explorer has completed a magnetic high, two holes – Magi005 and Magi006 at Magi and Intervals of 36m and 46m of kimberlitic sandy tuff were intersected respectively.
Thirteen samples of the sandy tuff from drill hole Magi005 were delivered to the Saskatchewan Research Council Laboratories (SRC) in Canada for micro-diamond recovery and the work is underway.
Additionally, mantle-derived indicator minerals were recovered from follow-up samples as outlined.
Pangolin also confirmed that the other three exploration targets, GH1, GH2 and Martin2, were each drilled; kimberlite was not intersected and currently the drill is testing TSM062; a magnetic high exploration target.
The drill will then move to the Magi where further processing of the airborne magnetic data has refined this target and two large circular features (300m by 300m and 400m by 400m) within the Magi are revealed.
At Jwaneng South, one diamond drill continues to test exploration targets, the company reported.
Drill holes CJ007a and CJ007b have intersected an unusual brecciated volcanic rock with pervasive and intense alteration.
Three core samples are presently undergoing geochemical analysis and petrographic observations to characterize the occurrence and its alteration.
The company said the results of soil sampling completed several months ago at Jwaneng South were received and a number of ilmenite grains are recovered and the chemistry of the grains is yet to be determined.
The drill is presently testing CJ002, a large (300m by 300m) intense circular magnetic low. A series of drill holes are planned within the CJ Cluster; CJ008, CJ014 are next. In all there are 12 targets to be drilled within this cluster as priority targets.
