Galileo (ASX:GAL) shows diverse promise in Norseman

Galileo Mining diamond drilling results has shown palladium-platinum-gold-copper-nickel grades increasing at depth at the Callisto prospect, part of the Company’s 100% owned Norseman project in Western Australia.

Significant drill intersections from NRCD27 includes:

5 metres @ 3.28 g/t 3E (1) (2.64 g/t Pd, 0.46 g/t Pt, 0.18 g/t Au), 0.54% Cu & 0.45% Ni from 265m
4 metres @ 1.77 g/t 3E (1.43 g/t Pd, 0.27 g/t Pt, 0.07 g/t Au), 0.31% Cu & 0.28% Ni from 274m
21 metres @ 0.89 g/t 3E (0.71 g/t Pd, 0.14 g/t Pt, 0.03 g/t Au), 0.15% Cu & 0.21% Ni from 238m

“As well as higher palladium numbers it is significant to note that the platinum, gold, copper, and nickel values are also increasing in this new zone,” Managing Director Brad Underwood said.
“The lower palladium seam appears to be related to a flatter lying part of the stratigraphy where mineralisation gently dips to the east at an estimated depth of 250 metres below surface.”

The distance between the western most drill hole with significant assays (NRC309; see ASX announcement dated 12th October 2022) and NRCD279 is over 500 metres. This corridor remains open in both directions and with over five kilometres of prospective rocks to explore to the north.

“Much more drilling is required to determine the full extent and grade of palladium and other metals in the Callisto region,” Mr Underwood added.
“With over 20 diamond core drill holes undertaken to date we believe that the potential for further success continues to be exceptional.”

Assays from regional scout RC drilling to the north are expected back from the laboratory in early to mid-November.

About Galileo Mining

Galileo Mining Ltd (ASX: GAL) is focussed on the exploration and development of palladium, nickel, copper, and cobalt resources in Western Australia. GAL’s tenements near Norseman are highly prospective for palladium-copper-nickel sulphide deposits as shown by the Callisto discovery. GAL also has Joint Ventures with the Creasy Group over tenements in the Fraser Range which are prospective for nickel-copper sulphide deposits similar to the operating Nova mine. GAL’s Norseman Project contains a near surface laterite deposit with over 26,000 tonnes of contained cobalt, and 122,000 tonnes of contained nickel, in JORC compliant resources.
