Anova Metals Limited announced the assay results for the first two holes (BS-006 and ZBF-02a) from the 2020 diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned Big Springs Gold Project in Nevada (Big Springs). Assay results were received for BS-006 (North shoot, North Sammy) and ZBF-02a (401 deposit, South Sammy). Multiple lodes of gold mineralisation were intercepted at both BS-006 and ZBF-02a, with a summary of the intervals The results included: BS-006: 5.49m @ 15.23g/t from 106.07m, including 1.52m @ 31.5g/t; and ZBF-02a: 4.54m @ 3.98g/t from 91.75m, including 1.39m @ 7.24g/t. Intense alteration such as silicification and decarbonation was developed in the mineralisation zones. Pyrite and arsenopyrite were the dominant sulphide minerals observed. Brecciation within the mineralisation zone also occurred due to the intersection with faults. Follow-up drill holes focussed on both these extensional successes are expected to form part of the 2021 drilling program, targeting significant further resource growth in these areas. Extensive drilling and broader exploration activities are currently being planned for the 2021 field season, including drilling, soil sampling, field mapping and geophysics surveys. Further details with respect to the planned 2021 field program at Big Springs are expected to be announced shortly.Assay results for the remaining eight diamond holes completed in the 2020 drilling program are expected to be received over coming weeks. This program comprised infill and extensional drilling of the existing 1.03 Moz Big Springs Mineral Resource, plus active testing of new exploration targets.
