Savannah Goldfields Limited (ASX:SVG) Announces New Gold Exploration Target at Georgetown Project
New Exploration Target Identified
Savannah Goldfields Limited (ASX:SVG) has identified a new gold exploration target at its wholly-owned Georgetown Project. The Electric Light Deposit exploration target is estimated between 100,000 and 200,000 tonnes with gold grades ranging from 2.0 g/t Au to 5.0 g/t Au.
Strategic Significance
Located approximately 30 km from the company’s Georgetown Processing Plant, the Electric Light Deposit offers potential extensions down dip and along strike from previous mined zones. This contributes to Savannah’s “Hub and Spoke” strategy, aiming to provide multiple sources of feed into the processing plant.
Future Exploration Plans
Savannah plans to advance this exploration target with further drilling and assaying to potentially convert the target into a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource. Additional exploration targets are also anticipated at Phily’s, Jubilee Plunger, and Big Reef deposits.
Executive Comments
CEO Brad Sampson stated, “This new Exploration Target builds on our geological knowledge of the Georgetown area and contributes to our planning as we shape the exploration programme to extend the processing life at the Georgetown processing plant. As we continue to progress towards the recommencement of gold mining and processing operations, it is pleasing to also in parallel to be able to identify opportunities to grow our existing Mineral Resources.”
