Assays of samples from the drilling announced recently1 by EMU NL (ASX:EMU) (“EMU” or “the Company”) confirm significant scale rare earth mineralisation with high values for TREO, HREO and MREO2 at the 100% owned Condingup REE Project near Esperance WA.
The wide-spaced aircore drilling programme targeted deep clay traps and paleochannels,interpreted from EMU’s passive seismic geophysics survey, returned significant TREO results upto 2,513ppm over multiple kilometres and over wide drilling intervals. This proof-of-concept drilling effectively demonstrated that substantial concentrations of REEs are hosted in the deeper clay trap zones within the weathering profile overlying fresh host Booanya granites.
