Astral Resources Delivers Strong Gold Grades at Spargoville as Mandilla Drilling Continues

Astral Resources (ASX: AAR) has announced significant high-grade gold intercepts from its Spargoville project, with mineralisation interpreted as open at depth, complementing ongoing development drilling at its Mandilla project.

Astral reported assay results from 39 reverse-circulation (RC) infill and extensional drill holes totalling 4,234m at Spargoville's Wattle Dam Complex, supporting programs across the Redback, Huntsman, and Trapdoor prospects.

Key intersections included 13m at 7.10g/t Au from 87m, notably containing 2m at 34.6g/t Au, as well as 5m at 9.35g/t Au from 38m, including 3m at 13.8g/t Au.

Company interpretation suggests that the high-grade mineralisation is linked to the eastern contact of an interpreted porphyry and is steeper than previously understood.

Importantly, the deepest drill tests indicate that the mineralisation remains open at depth, with the extent of mineralisation at Huntsman potentially increasing by as much as 150m from the current resource.
