Mount Ridley Mines Limited
(ASX:MRD) provided a drilling update today following the receipt of further assay results from its 2022 drilling programme, which specifically targeted clay-hosted rare earth element (REE) mineralisation. The Mount Ridley Project is located near Esperance, Western Australia. Mount Ridley’s Chairman Mr Peter Christie commented “With over 90% of assays now received, the regional drilling programme has been an outstanding success in demonstrating widespread clay hosted REE mineralisation throughout the entire Project area. We are very encouraged by these results with new targets discovered, higher grade and thicker intersections, and significant mineralisation occurring at shallower depths. These results have given the Company confidence to commit to a substantial drilling and metallurgical programme at the REE Project”. Shares are trading 20 per cent higher at 1 cent.
