Barton Gold Completes Geotechnical Drilling at Central Gawler Mill

Barton Gold Holdings Limited has finalized geotechnical drilling at the TSF1 site, part of its South Australian Challenger Gold Project. The work supports the company's Definitive Feasibility Study for 'Stage 1' production. Efforts included five sonic drill holes, 24 cone penetration tests, and analyses for vein shear and bulk density. The results will guide mine design, equipment selection, and cost estimation for gold production.

Alexander Scanlon, Barton Gold's Managing Director, emphasized the significance of the drilling as a foundational step in the 'Stage 1' production at the Central Gawler Mill. The collected samples will assist in fine grinding test work and crucial operational decisions.
