Following up on its Callisto PGE discovery at the Norseman Project in WA, our long term exploration Investment, Galileo Mining (ASX:GAL) has commenced a 10,000 metre RC drill campaign.

The ~50 drill hole campaign will see GAL begin to test the true extent of mineralisation discovered at Callisto. GAL has five kilometres of untested strike length along with good potential for more mineralisation of the same style.

The drill campaign consists of 50-metre spaced drill holes around the known mineralisation as well as stepping out up to one kilometre to the north of the existing drill holes.

Below are the target zones around known sulphide mineralisation for the upcoming drill campaign:

Regional drilling up to one kilometre away (off plan to the north) from existing drill holes is also planned within the current program.

What’s Next?

The drilling program is expected to run for twelve weeks with samples will be delivered to the lab weekly and assay results from this round of drilling expected from early September 2022.

GAL also reports that it has signed a diamond drilling contract with that program planned to start in the coming weeks.
