The drill program is designed to test the one-kilometre long Terakimti volcanogenic massive sulfide to a depth of 250 metres.
Drilling in the southern part of the Terakimti target area has defined thick zones of steeply south-dipping massive sulfide mineralization over a 250-metre strike length.
Tigray has three diamond drill rigs on site and has completed approximately 6,500 metres of diamond drilling in 35 holes to an average depth of 195 metres.
The first phase drill program is expected to be complete in the next year.
Diamond drill core samples have undergone preliminary preparation at the Turkey-based Acme Laboratories facility and are crushed to 80% passing 10 mesh, and pulverized to 85% passing 200 mesh.
