Cottesloe and Red Setter Project Update
Patersons Range, Western Australia
Wishbone Gold Plc (AIM: WSBN, AQSE: WSBN), is pleased to announce updates on the 100% owned Cottesloe and Red Setter Projects (Figure 1), The Cottesloe Project is located 55 km south-southwest of the Telfer Gold Mine, and the Red Setter Project is 13 km south-west of the Telfer Gold Mine, in the Patersons Range of Western Australia.
Highlights:
· A Heritage Clearance Survey has been confirmed for 28 March to 2 April at Red Setter and Cottesloe Projects.
· The Heritage Clearance Survey at the Cottesloe Project is for Reverse Circulation drilling over the 7 Geophysical targets varying in size up to 3.7km x 1.2km identified to date from geophysics.
· At Red Setter the Heritage Clearance Survey will extend previously approved areas to allow better access for Reverse Circulation drilling.
· Top Drill Limited have been appointed as drilling contractor and with Western Australian borders having opened on 3 March, and the wet season coming to an end, will be in a position to confirm the start of drilling shortly.
· Drilling is proposed to re-start at Red Setter on previously cleared drill sites, and then continue to the newly cleared areas, with an extensive drilling program at Cottesloe planned for later in the year
Richard Poulden, Wishbone Gold's Chairman, commented:
"The technical team have been working hard over the summer wet season to set Wishbone up for the 2022 Paterson Range exploration season. With the extended Aboriginal Lor period ending on 14 March, the team have done exceptionally well to get the heritage survey confirmed to start on 28 March, and I look forward to the re-start of drilling at Red Setter and for the maiden drilling program at Cottesloe to get underway. It is good to have Western Australia finally reopen its borders after two years of isolation."
