Eclipse Metals given green light to begin fieldwork at Ivittuut in Greenland
The approved work program will include field assessment, general inspection and sampling with this work paving the way for further test-work to facilitate calculation of a JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate. Eclipse acquired the former operating Ivittuut project in January 2021.
Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX:EPM) has received approval from the Greenland Government for an initial fieldwork program at the lvittuut Project, which has near-term cryolite, fluorite and rare earth production potential.
This approval will enable Eclipse Metals to assess access, ground conditions and confirmation of geological features at Ivittuut.
Eclipse Metals defines high-grade copper-silver and broad zinc mineralisation at Rock Hill Copper Prospect
Historical drilling results demonstrate the presence of wide copper-zinc-silver mineralisation within the Mt Hardy and Yuendumu areas of the Arunta Complex. Future exploration will include airborne EM surveys followed up by RC drilling.
Eclipse Metals Ltd’s (ASX:EPM) historical diamond drilling review has delineated high-grade copper-silver mineralisation and anomalous zinc zones at the Rock Hill Project area in the Northern Territory.
The review of 912 metres of drilling in eight historical diamond holes was on the ELA26487 Yuendi exploration licence (in the name of wholly-owned subsidiary Whitvista Pty Ltd) - one of the company’s Ngalia base-metal prospects in the Northern Territory within the Aileron Province of the Arunta Block.
