It also encountered a wide zone of copper mineralisation as follows:\n \n \n o \n 168m @ 0.25% CuEq from 140m downhole\n \n \n o \n including 10m @ 0.39% CuEq\n \n \n o \n and 28m @ 0.45% CuEq\n \n \n \n \n \n Colin Bird, Executive Chairman said: \n \n \n \"The latest drill assay results continue to please us as they confirm a consistent pattern of wide copper intervals, with the highest grades in the shallow 'crown' of the deposit. Drilling is progressing well at site and we look forward to providing further positive news as the programme advances.\" \n \n \n \n \n \n Phase Two Bushranger Assay Results\n \n \n \n \n \n Table 1 - Assay Results from Drill Hole BRDD-21-010 & BRDD-21-013*\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Hole ID\n \n \n \n \n From (m)\n \n \n \n \n To (m)\n \n \n \n \n Interval (m)\n \n \n \n \n Cu (%)\n \n \n \n \n Au (g/t)\n \n \n \n \n Ag (g/t)\n \n \n \n \n CuEq (%)**\n \n \n \n \n \n \n BRDD-21-010\n \n \n \n \n 178\n \n \n \n \n 516\n \n \n \n \n 338\n \n ...
