This is a milestone achievement for Australian Mines as it confirms that the technical team within the Western Australian Mines Department recognis es the potential of Marymia to host a significant discovery.
The Company a nticipates commencing the next phase of its drilling program in early February 2015 .
This program has been designed to test a number of nickel , copper and gold targets including the Burton prospect where a strong electromagnetic conductor was recently identified beneath a thick layer of nickel oxide mineralisation.
Managing Director Benjamin Bell stated, " This is a very positive result for Australian Mines . Through its financial contribution to Australian Mines’ upcoming drilling program, the Department of Mines and Petroleum recognises that the Marymia Project demonstrates real potential to host significant mineralisation.
Exploration results retur ned from the Marymia Project to date indicate that the project could indeed host a multi – commodity discovery and we are delighted to have the backing of the Western Australian Government for our next stage of drilling."
