Robust announces final assay results from Romang project

?All four holes encountered precious metal and or base metal mineralisation of potentially economic grades and widths, significantly extending the identified zones of mineralization,? the company said.
The outstanding result came from hole LWD 062 in the Batu Mas Prospect area. This hole intersected gold and silver mineralisation over a drilled width of 82.5 metres which is the widest intersection encountered by Robust in sixteen months of drilling to date.
The location of this hole is significant in that it demonstrates increasing strength of mineralisation moving south and east from previous successful drill holes and indicates a large area of untested.
Final assay results received from hole LWD 062 include:
82.5 metres at 1.59 g/t Au equivalent (1.05 g/t Au and 34 g/t Ag) from 1.5 metres
Including 11.5 metres at 3.07 g/t Au equivalent (1.35 g/t Au and 114 g/t Ag) from 22.5 metres
And 13 metres at 3.72 g/t Au equivalent (2.99 g/t Au and 44 g/t Ag) from 59 metres
The results of the 3D IP/Resistivity programme will become available progressively over the next 3 months and will guide us in identifying new areas for further exploration, assisting us greatly in unlocking the true potential of the giant 6Km x 4Km Lakuwahi Project, it said
Also at Batu Mas, diamond drill hole LWD 058 intersected a thick zone of zinc, lead, copper, gold and silver mineralised breccia where a relatively rich gold and silver zone overlies a thick accumulation of base metals.
Drilling continues at Batu Mas with 2 diamond drill rigs on site to further extend the defined mineralisation, while the company?s fourth rig is in commissioning stage and is expected to be active on site next month. Five additional holes from Batu Mas are in various stages of preparation and sample transport. (denny)
