Buxton Resources (ASX:BUX) | Madman Project Drilling Update
MarketOpen's Trading Titan | Buxton Resources Ltd (ASX: BUX) | Madman Project Maiden Drilling Update
In this episode of MarketOpen's Trading Titan podcast, we break down the latest exploration update from Buxton Resources Ltd and its one hundred percent owned Madman Project in the Paterson Orogen of Western Australia.
The company's maiden diamond drill hole, M-D-Zero Zero Two-D-D, has reached five hundred and thirty-three point nine metres. Crystalline basement rocks were encountered below approximately four hundred and fifty-five metres, with hydrothermal breccia intersected between approximately five hundred and eighteen point two metres and five hundred and twenty-five metres depth. The company reports increasing sulphide mineralisation with depth and states that pyrrhotite is the only magnetic mineral identified so far that is capable of explaining part of the project's approximately two hundred nanotesla magnetic anomaly, which covers a target footprint of around one square kilometre.
This episode explains the announcement in plain English, including why the company considers the geological observations significant, what they mean for the ongoing exploration program, and the next exploration activities planned at the project.
Key topics covered in this episode:
The hydrothermal breccia and sulphide mineralisation intersected during maiden drilling.
Why the company says pyrrhotite is significant in relation to the project's magnetic anomaly.
The planned downhole electromagnetic survey and how the company intends to use the results to guide further drilling.
What has and has not been confirmed, including that laboratory assays are still pending and no gold has been confirmed.
The next milestones, including continued drilling, downhole electromagnetic surveying, additional drilling and future assay results.
