The completion of a further 18,500m of RC diamond drilling in the Central and Southern Zones includes very promising high - grade results from these largely untested areas within the Southern Zone which have returned widespread zones of high - grade gold mineralisation . We are about to commence a large - scale 60,000m drilling campaign to further our ambition for a multi - million- ounce Resource and to realise the potential scale of a significant mining operation at the KGP . I look forward to a highly active summer period as we continue to realise the potential scale of gold mineralisation at Katanning " .
