Ventnor Resources – Arrowsmith Silica Sand Project Update

  • 30 August

Ventnor Resources Limited (ASX:VRX) has released bulk sampling results from its auger drill program at the Arrowsmith silica sand project north of Perth. Ventnor’s drilling included a hand-held auger drilling program of 123 holes to obtain adequate sample for bulk testwork. A full analysis of all the quality control data has now been assessed. Importantly, the analysis validates the hand auger sample assay dataset and conforms with the guidelines for reporting under the JORC-2012 code.


Highlights:

· Hand auger program to collect bulk sample completed 

· Bulk sample testing now underway 

· Preliminary results indicate glassmaking quality 

· QA/QC results indicate low assay variability 

· Maiden Resource estimate underway

Ventnor Resources Limited (Ventnor or Company) (ASX: VRX) is pleased to announce bulk sampling results from its auger drill program at the Arrowsmith Silica Sand Project, located 270km north of Perth, WA.

Ventnor’s drilling included a hand-held auger drilling program of 123 holes to obtain adequate sample for bulk testwork. A full analysis of all the quality control data has now been assessed.

This analysis validates the hand auger sample assay dataset and conforms with the guidelines for reporting under the JORC-2012 code.

Ventnor Managing Director, Bruce Maluish said: “The results of the preliminary testwork are very encouraging as they achieve the desired glassmaking standard of 99.5% SiO2.

“Initial results have supported the decision to undertake further iterations of testwork with additional attritioning and magnetic separation to achieve even higher quality products. Final testwork products enable marketing and to support a JORC-2012 compliant Mineral Resource estimation”.

The testwork program, which is ongoing, will also produce sufficient quantities of products to enable samples to be sent to prospective customers. The Company has already received a number of enquiries from potential Asian customers.

Ventnor has engaged experienced geological consultancy, CSA Global, to undertake the Maiden Resource estimate at Arrowsmith North and Arrowsmith Central silica sand project areas. The estimate is expected during September 2018.
