Assay results have been received from the initial two drill holes completed at the Constellation deposit. Drill holes TAKD001 and TAKD002 both intersected high grade copper mineralisation.
Aeris’ Executive Chairman, Andre Labuschagne, said: “These assay results are very exciting. Not only are we getting high grade copper hits but the multiple EM plates remain open. 2020 has been both a challenging and rewarding year for Aeris and the discovery of Constellation has been a great way to finish the year. I am looking forward to see how the Constellation deposit evolves over the course of 2021 as the drill program continues.”
The drill program has now paused for the Christmas break and will recommence in early January.
