The 2000m maiden RC drilling programme will test several high-priority targets including multiple high-priority carbonatite and REE-bearing drill targets recently reported from soil sampling.

In addition to these recently identified targets, a recent aeromagnetic and surface geochemistry programme has defined a 1000 x 600m intrusive system considered highly prospective for REE mineralisation at the Bruce Prospect.

The maiden drilling programme at Bruce is expected to take approximately three weeks to complete with the first assays to be reported within four to six weeks of completion.
