HIGHLIGHTS:
- OVD027 confirms the continution of excessive grade huge sulphide from OVD0211 with an intercept of 6.1 metres of 4.16% Cu, 3.51% Ni, 0.G3g/t E3, and 0.13% Co from G8.2 metres encountered between broader excessive grade zones of:
- A dense disseminated intercept – 26.2 metres of 0.44% Cu, 0.52% Ni, 0.12g/t E3, and 0.03% Co from 72.0 metres and
- A internet textured intercept – 15.3 metres of 1.15% Cu, 0.79% Ni, 0.35g/t E3, and 0.04% Co from 104.3 metres;
- A excessive grade broad intersection is confirmed on the central a part of the Oval space by OVD026. It features a huge sulphide intercept in gap OVD026 of 1.8 metres of three.21% Cu, 3.32% Ni, 0.6Gg/t E3, and 0.14% Co from 105.0 metres inside broader mineralisation of:
- 19.8 metres of 1.23% Cu, 0.98% Ni, 0.36g/t E3, and 0.05% Co from 91.2 metres.
OVD026 is positioned 100 metres northwest of the beforehand introduced 8.8 metres of huge sulphide recognized in drillhole OVD021.
On completion of the Part 2 exploration work and receipt of all assays, Managing Director Gan-Ochir Zunduisuren, commented:“The 2024 Part 1 and a couple of drilling and exploration applications have confirmed the broad presence of high-grade mineralisation within the Oval gabbroic intrusion. The grades intercepted in among the drillholes are distinctive and could also be indicative of broader potential over a bigger space, given Oval is a greenfields discovery.
The 2025 exploration program will give attention to acquiring info on the dimensions/metallic content material potential of the Oval Cu-Ni-PGE mineral system in addition to concentrating on the attainable deeper magmatic sources at Oval. Broader exploration can be deliberate at potential extensions of Oval and close by look-a-like prospects. We stay up for updating shareholders on progress, with drilling anticipated to start in round 8 weeks”.
Abstract of Part 2 exploration drilling at Oval Cu-Ni-PGE undertaking
The Firm’s latest drilling work has predominantly centered on discovering high-grade mineralisation within the olivine-amphibole gabbro on the Oval undertaking. The a number of intercepts of huge sulphide mineralisation with totally different ratios of metallic contents all through the Oval gabbroic intrusion is very encouraging for the presence of a number of deeper sources of excessive grade mineralisation within the opinion of ABM.

Drillhole OVD02c
Drillhole OVD026 was designed to check the Down-Gap Electromagnetic (DHEM) conductor plate recognized as OVD007_L2_B (reinterpretation of OVD007_L2_A2 by Southern Geoscience Consultants), which reveals a conductance of 1,000 siemens. The drilling intersected a complete of 1G.8 metres of mineralisation with 1.23% Cu, 0.G8% Ni, 0.36g/t E3, and 0.05% Co from G1.2 metres together with;
- 4.8 metres of @ 0.45% Cu, 0.43% of Ni, 0.14g/t E3, and 0.02% Co of dense disseminated mineralised gabbro from 91.2 metres,
- 6.6 metres of @ 1.56% Cu, 0.G0% Ni, 0.50g/t E3, and 0.04% Co of internet textured mineralisation from G6.0 metres,
- 2.4 metres of @ 1.52% Cu, 1.3G% Ni, 0.43g/t E3, and 0.07% Co of semi huge sulphide mineralisation from 102.6 metres,
- 1.8 metres of @ 3.21% Cu, 3.32% Ni, 0.6Gg/t E3, and 0.14% Co of huge sulphide mineralisation from 105.0 metres, and
- 4.2 metres of @ 0.57% Cu, 0.45% of Ni, 0.21g/t E3, and 0.02% Co of dense disseminated mineralised gabbro from 106.9 metres (Desk 1 offers an in depth breakdown of mineralisation intervals).
OVD026 is positioned within the Oval space, which is roughly 100 metres northwest of the earlier intersection recognized in drillhole OVD0213. This intercept might characterize an extension of the recognized huge sulphide mineralisation within the Oval space and highlights the potential for additional growth of huge sulphide zones inside the broader prospect space (Figures 1 and three).
