Castle kicks off gold drilling at Kpali, Ghana


Castle Minerals (ASX:CDT) has announced its commencement of gold drilling on-site the Kpali project in Ghana.

The 1,000m RC drill run reflects phase one of a larger 3,500m campaign sniffing out multiple target areas of interest.

Previous intercepts include grades up to 3.23g/t gold from depths less than 10m.

The Kpali project lies within a larger 2,686sq.km landholding hosting “several additional gold prospects.” It is located over the Birimian terrane which Castle describes as hosting world-class deposits.

The company pointed to higher gold prices as an incentive to recommence activities.

“Our immediate aim is to demonstrate that Kpali could be an indicator of a new West African mining camp with initial Castle RC drilling providing a great start to doing that,” Castle EC Stephen Stone said.

CDT last traded at 0.4cps.
