Manhattan Corporation Limited provided an update on the drilling program planned for its Tibooburra Gold Project, located in the emerging Koonenberry Gold District, North of Broken Hill, New South Wales. HIGHLIGHTS: Drilling Rig and Technical crew have mobilised on the Main Zone at New Bendigo and will commence drilling shortly; Jason Bontempo provides the latest company update available on the website which outlines plans for MHC's drilling programme. The current ~2,200 km2 Tibooburra Gold Project comprises a contiguous land package of 11 granted exploration licences and four exploration licence application that are located approximately 200km north of Broken Hill.

It stretches 160km south from the historic Tibooburra townsite and incorporates a large proportion of the Albert Goldfields (which produced in excess of 50,000 to 100,000 ounces of Au from auriferous quartz vein networks and alluvial deposits that shed from them during its short working life), along the gold-anomalous (soil, rock and drilling geochemistry, gold workings) New Bendigo Fault, to where it merges with the Koonenberry Fault, and then strikes further south on towards the recently discovered Kayrunnera gold nugget field. The area is conveniently accessed via the Silver City Highway, which runs N-S through the project area.
