Robust announces assay result of Batu Putih

By Puspita Maylana Devi

ASX-listed company Robust Resources Limited said on Tuesday that assay results from two holes drilled on the Batu Putih confirmed its high potential for precious metal mineralisation.

Batu Putih is a structural offshoot of the productive Batu Mas deposit on Romang Island.

The company in statement said that drill hole LWD 327 is particularly significant as it intersected a very broad zone of silver mineralisation at the northwestern limit of drilling; the trend remains open for further discovery to the north-west.

Robust?s Managing Director Gary Lewis said ?Our geological team has long recognized the Batu Putih trend as a significant mineralised target. All the early drill holes intersected mineralisation but the assay results from these two new drill holes clearly demonstrate the large potential of the areas.

?We are continuing to explore Romang Island with seven drill rigs currently in operation and other exploration initiatives underway. We are now drilling a number of high-priority targets, with the results to be announced at regular intervals.
