- Project Details – Platina Resources
All projects owned by Sangold Resources are located within gold-producing regions in Western Australia. Together, Sangold Resources holds 13 tenements covering an area of 276.9km2. All tenements will be held 100% owned by Platina Resources upon completion of the transaction.
The BRIMSTONE GOLD PROJECT is located 40km northeast of Kalgoorlie and covers 70km2. The advanced, high-grade near-surface gold project has shown a mineralization strike length of 10km. In the project, the Garibaldi area is a highly mineralized mining lease. Prior drilling at the site has shown high-grade gold mineralization. The project has also seen historical drill hole intercepts at Lapage/Jammie Dodger and Eastern Workings. The project includes 1 granted exploration license and 2 pending exploration licenses.
Beete Gold Project – Platina Resources
The BEETE GOLD PROJECT tenement area is located 50km south of Norseman and covers 139km2. The site sits within an emerging gold province with recent discoveries made in the nearby area by Aruma Resources and Meeka Gold. The discoveries of these ASX-listed companies show the significant potential of the region. The Beete Gold Project includes one exploration license (EL63/2193). The project has seen historical drilling between 1997 and 2002.
Binti Binti Gold Project – Platina Resources
The BINTI BINTI GOLD PROJECT is located 50Km northeast of Kalgoorlie and comprises 2 exploration licenses. The project covers an area of approximately 68.2km2. The project has had no historic drilling or exploration and is not interpreted as a potential greenstone prospect.
Platina Resources – Investor Outlook
Commenting on the update, MANAGING DIRECTOR COREY NOLAN said, “Brimstone is an advanced-stage project and holds immense appeal given its previous gold assay results. Historic work has never been followed up with a campaign. The Beete and Binti Binti projects are in proven mineralization provinces.”
PLATINA RESOURCES is currently doing due diligence for the acquisition while simultaneously working to raise capital for the development of its portfolio. For more news on PLATINA RESOURCES, visit the official website.
