Lodestar Minerals (ASX:LSR)
Three Saints Confirms Copper-Bearing Sulphides
Assay results from L3SDD004 provide additional geological and geochemical information supporting the IOCG-style hydrothermal system interpretation at Three Saints. Copper sulphides are associated with magnetite-bearing mineralisation and hydrothermal alteration, while anomalous copper and cobalt in a skarn alteration zone provide new vectors for the next phase of exploration.
