Castile Resources Limited announced that the drilling program for the 2022 season in the Rover Mineral Field has commenced. The program will include extensive drilling, downhole electromagnetics (DHEM) and ground gravity surveys at six different areas of the highly prospective projects within Castile portfolio. The first hole (22CRD001) at Rover 1 for the 2022 season has been designed to accomplish 3 tasks; Testing for copper and gold mineralisation through a poorly tested volume within the alteration envelope between Jupiter West and Jupiter Deeps ironstones.

Intersecting significant mineralisation in this area of the Rover 1 IOCG mineral system has the potential to significantly improve the resource base. Collection of bulk copper mineralisation from Jupiter West and Jupiter Deeps for test work. Testing for copper and gold mineralisation approximately 100m west along strike of the Ganymede discovery hole.

WGR1D043-2 intersected distinct copper and gold zones, indicating mineralisation continues under Jupiter Deeps for an additional 250 vertical meters: 19m @ 1.5% Cu and 0.3g/t Au from 875m downhole. 6m @ 1.7% Cu and 0.6g/t Au from 904m downhole. 26m @ 1.3% Cu and 0.4g/t Au from 964m downhole.

15m @ 6.0g/t Au and 0.2% Cu from 1,033m downhole incl 6m @ 9.5g/t Au. 20m @ 3.2g/t Au and 0.3% Cu from 1,087m downhole incl 9m @ 5.4g/t Au. Rover 4 is comprised primarily of copper mineralisation hosted in Ironstone.

The majority of metal endowment is hosted within the in the lower ironstone body. Both ironstone zones have hanging wall and foot wall mineralised zones in proximity to the contact with the surrounding metasedimentary rocks. Four drillholes have been designed to test copper mineralisation continuity.

There is a significant volume (100m dip and 80m strike extent) of untested ironstone between up dip holes R4ARD24: 9m @ 1.7% Cu from 257m (hanging wall) and 12m @ 0.8% Cu from 257m downhole (foot wall) and historic Peko hole R4_AN1_DDH1: 12m @ 0.8% Cu from 257m. downhole (hanging wall) and the following drillholes: R4ARD21 23m @ 1.6% Cu from 306m downhole (hanging wall). R4ARD27 17m @ 1.8% Cu from 309m downhole (hanging wall).

R4ARD28 24m @ 1.7% Cu from downhole 333m (hanging wall) and 21m @ 2.4% Cu from 378m downhole (foot wall). R4ARD34 11m @ 1.0% Cu from 335m downhole (hanging wall) and 10m @1.9% Cu from 379m downhole (foot wall).
