WATCH the moment when MD Mike Schwarz identifies the vein that returned up to 15.9% Antimony in rockchips at the Falchion Gold-Antimony Prospect (2min)

HIGHLIGHTS
- Two separate high grade antimony zones, up to 300m long, have been identified at both the Sabre and Falchion Prospects
- Mapping and historical drilling suggests thicknesses in excess of 14m. The high-grade zones disappear under cover and appear to be open along strike and at depth
- Significant rock chips at Sabre include
- 30.6% Sb and 2.5 g/t Au
- 29.7% Sb and 4.8 g/t Au
- 24.6% Sb and 21 g/t Au
- 11.2% Sb and 24.0 g/t Au
- Significant rock chips at Falchion include
- 15.9% Sb and 5.0 g/t Au
- 5.5% Sb and 2.2 g/t Au
- 4.7% Sb and 0.7 g/t Au
- Zones appear to have been overlooked by previous explorers due to a focus on gold mineralisation, and poor outcrop of high-grade zones due to deeper weathering of antimony sulphides
- Majority of drill holes at both prospects were not assayed for antimony and consequently do not test the new target zones
- Three high-grade antimony systems have now been identified, at surface, over a distance of over 2.5km, in a broader antimony lag soil anomaly extending for over 6km
- iTech has received heritage approval to drill test these targets and is currently obtaining approvals for drilling later this year
While one high-grade antimony rock chip existed within historical exploration data at Reynolds Range, there was no indication of continuity or extent of mineralisation. iTech has now identified the source of the high-grade antimony as coming from >300m long veins at both the Sabre and Falchion Prospects. These veins have been tested with very few drill holes that were analysed for antimony, presenting immediate drill targets for our upcoming drilling program later this year.
