Ausquest: Completes drilling at Tangadee zinc project

  • Minerals explorer Ausquest (AQD) has completed a reverse circulation drilling program at its Tangadee zinc project in WA’s Edmund Basin
  • The RC drilling targeted an area of zinc-thallium soil anomalism, which graded over 1000 parts per million (ppm) zinc and more than 5 ppm thallium
  • The drilling intersected over 200 metres of black carbonaceous mudstones containing fine-grained pyrite, but no visual signs of zinc mineralisation
  • AusQuest Managing Director Graeme Drew says it’s likely positive results will returned, as pyritic black mudstones are common host rocks for zin
  • Samples have sent to the Genalysis Intertek Laboratory in Perth for analysis, with assays expected in coming weeks
  • Ausquest is trading 6.45 per cent lower at 2.9 cents
