Source: STK<\/p>\n<p>However, three of the diamond holes appear to have been drilled too far east to intersect the targeted mineralised structure in fresh rock, and also with an oblique orientation.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the diamond holes repeatedly intersected very large zones of intense alteration, which is typically seen at the outer edges of similarly large gold systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile the company was hopeful of intersecting the Marwari lode again at depth in these initial diamond holes, what the holes do confirm is that we are indeed dealing with a very large and structurally complex system,\u201d STK chief executive officer Andrew Bray said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is evidenced by the extremely intense alteration, veining and complexity seen in the core, as well as the fact that the system has also been intersected over a distance of 1.1km.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe balance of RC holes and four diamond holes remain outstanding, along with the two initial RC holes drilled at Chetak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven Christmas break closures and anticipated further delays, the company expects to receive these assays in the second half of January 2024.
