Announcement summary: Great Southern Mining Limited (ASX: GSN) (“GSN” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from its maiden Diamond Drilling (DD) program from the Southern Star Gold Deposit at its 100% owned Duketon Gold Project located 45km north of Laverton, Western Australia. A two hole 319.5m DD program has been completed at Southern Star. The purpose of this drilling was to obtain further insight into the gold mineralisation at Southern Star, which is open to the north, south and at depth. The two diamond holes were drilled 580m apart at opposite ends of the current known mineralisation, with the intention to examine the structural orientation of quartz veining, folding and foliation at the current extents of mineralisation. Gold mineralisation at Southern Star is hosted in an east-dipping 345°- trending quartz-dolerite unit which is approximately 80m wide. The drilling was designed to target the footwall of the quartz dolerite unit as this is where the primary lode is persistent and of high-grade based on assessment to date. The high-grade mineralisation can be traced for over 700m of strike length and is open in all directions (Figure 2). Major shearing runs the length of the deposit with gold mineralisation being associated with quartz veining and sulphides within the fractionated dolerite unit, pervasive foliation was observed in both diamond holes and strikes 345° which matches the regional strike and further supports the relationship between Ben Hur and Southern Star.
