S2 Resource’s encouraging first drill hole at Glenlogan
300m of hydrothermal alteration and disseminated pyriteii
Legacy Minerals Holdings Limited (ASX: LGM, “LGM”, “the Company” or “Legacy Minerals”) is pleased to
report a drilling update at the Glenlogan Project (EL9614) completed by earn-in partner S2 Resources Ltd
(S2R) i.
The Glenlogan Project Drilling ii
•
Main magnetic anomaly is an alkaline gabbroic diorite, intruded by later quartz diorite porphyry
(“QDP”) dykes that increase in abundance downhole.
•
The last 300 metres of the hole contains:
o
increasing QDP dykes, hydrothermal alteration and disseminated pyrite,
o
o
increasingly anomalous levels of copper, gold and other chalcophile/pathfinder elements
widespread presence of very fine-grained late magmatic/hydrothermal chalcopyrite
intergrown with propylitic-style alteration assemblage.
•
Late magmatic/hydrothermal chalcopyrite and consequent elevated copper in and around QDP dykes
suggests they may be fertile and may represent the fringes of a nearby potentially mineralised
porphyry intrusion as yet untested by drilling.
•
Geophysical methods being assessed to assist in targeting potential future drillhole.
Management comment – Legacy Minerals CEO & Managing Director, Christopher Byrne said:
“It’s positive to see that the first drill hole assays and petrography completed at Glenlogan by S2 Resources
show characteristics consistent with porphyry copper-style alteration. The implication is that we may be
near a potentially mineralised intrusive that has yet to be tested by drilling.
The widespread presence of chalcopyrite (copper sulphide) and increased levels of porphyry pathfinder
elements towards the end of the hole is very encouraging, considering the geological setting in the Lachlan
Fold Belt, and the proximity to the globally significant Cadia-Ridgeway Mine operated by Newmont.
The Farm-in agreement with S2 Resources provides our shareholders funding security and discovery
exposure to a major, potential company-making greenfield porphyry discovery. Legacy Minerals is pleased
to see the great progress S2 Resources has made on the Glenlogan project while LGM continues to focus on
its wholly-owned projects.
As S2 Resources continues to advance the Glenlogan Project, we look forward to updating our shareholders
on the next stages.”
