Encouragingly, the first hole targeted 50m down dip from the existing resource has intersected significant visible mineralisation, although assays are not yet available. Additional RC percussion drilling is also proposed to test the eastern strike extension of the Area 1 mineralisation. On Area 2, a 10 hole RC drilling program is in progress to test depth extensions of the resource. A large trenching program, with follow up RC drilling, is planned to test soil covered areas for new zones of gold mineralisation. This includes the Apex area, between Areas 1 and 2 that RSG consider very prospective for gold mineralisation The Company is in the process of initiating a preliminary scoping study for a wholly owned mining operation based on a central mill at Mupane and with potential millfeed from other nearby prospects.
Capital costs are likely to be modest due to good local infrastructure.
David Harley, non-executive Chairman of Gallery Gold and a former general manager of mineral exploration for Australasia at WMC, said The Company is confident that this current program together with subsequent work will lead to the establishment of a significant and profitable gold mine which will reward the patience and support of Gallery Gold shareholders .
