Superb exploration results
from Harmony’s Kili Teke prospect
·
Drilling continues to return significant intervals of porphyry copper-gold mineralisation:
- KTDD013: 186m @ 1.02% Cu, 0.72 g/t Au from 256m
·
Copper gold mineralisation (defined by a 0.2% copper envelope) currently outlined over
600m of strike, in excess of 200m wide, and extends 700m below surface
·
More upside potential exists
·
Early drill intercept grades and intervals highly encouraging in context with other porphyry
copper gold deposits in the region
Johannesburg. Thursday, 30 July 2015. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited
(
’Harmony’ or ‘the Company’
) is pleased to advise that additional drilling results from
its 100% owned exploration licence at its Kili Teke prospect in the Hela province in
Papua New Guinea (PNG) continues to return porphyry style mineralisation with
highly significant copper gold intercepts. More upside potential exists with
mineralisation being open at depth and along strike, and drilling to scope out the
extent and geometry of the system remains ongoing.
“
The latest drilling results from Kili Teke are extremely encouraging and confirm that
this asset is yet another fantastic copper gold find by Harmony in Papua New Guinea.
The mineralised footprint is growing as the drilling progresses, and the grades we are
seeing are similar to OK Tedi and Frieda River - with zones of higher grade stockwork
mineralisation and intervals of mineralised skarn breccia developing within the
broader envelope. In a world where new discoveries are rare, we are encouraged by
the prospect that Kili Teke could well develop into another major copper-gold
discovery” said Harmony’s Chief Execut
ive Officer, Graham Briggs.
The footprint of the mineralised zone (defined by the 0.2% copper envelope) has
currently defined over 600m of strike, in excess of 200m wide, and extends 700m
below surface. Refer to the figure below illustrating the oblique long section, showing
the footprint of the 0.2% copper envelope:
