Visible Gold at Odyssey/Monument Tuckanarra JV Project Reinforce Exploration Targeting at Murchison Gold Project
05 May 2021 - 11:41PM
Monument Mining Limited (TSX-V: MMY and FSE: D7Q1) “Monument” or
the “Company” is pleased to receive the news announced by its Joint
Venture Partner Odyssey Gold Ltd (“ODY”) that significant visible
gold has been intersected in its maiden diamond hole (Figure 1), a
70m step-out in the eastern extension of the developing Bottle Dump
deposit at the Tuckanarra JV Project (“Tuckanarra”) located in the
Murchison Goldfield. Together with other results, the new finding
confirms the strong potential of the Bottle Dump trend to host
high-grade gold mineralization (For details refer to:

President and CEO Cathy Zhai said: “The recent
results from Tuckanarra, whilst very preliminary, confirm and
re-inforce Monument’s view that extensive high-grade gold
mineralisation remains to be discovered at Burnakura and
Gabanintha. This is an exciting outcome as Monument prepares to
commence its exploration program for 2021.”
The results at Tuckanarra confirm the Company’s
view that the true potential of the Murchison Project is yet to be
defined. Historical mining operations have exploited the shallow
high grade gold mineralisation at Burnakura and Gabanintha through
both open pit and underground developments. The full depth and
strike extent of the mineralisation within these two systems is
still to be tested with mineralisation remaining open in many
directions at multiple deposits.
The Tuckanarra project is one of three
significant land holdings that make up Monument’s Murchison
Project. Burnakura, Gabanintha and Tuckanarra are within the
Archean Meekatharra-Wydgee greenstone belt of the Yilgarn Craton.
All have high grade gold potential. Given priority to Burnakura and
Gabanintha, 80% of Tuckanarra interest was sold to ODY last
December to advance exploration, and Monument remains with 20% free
carried interest until a decision to mine is made, plus a 1% net
smelter return royalty over Odyssey’s 80% interest. ODY has access
to Burnakura mill for their production subject to commercial
terms.
