We get the chance to talk with David Price, CEO of Rockfire Resources, to learn more about his past achievements.
He also provides his view on the gold commodity sector and explains the similarity of the Lighthouse project to Mt Wright gold mine.
Rockfire Resources plc (LON: ROCK), the gold and base-metal focused explorer, announce the completion of RC drilling at the 100%-owned Plateau Gold Deposit (Queensland, Australia).
David Price, Chief Executive Officer of Rockfire, commented:
“Through careful geological observations, the Rockfire technical team has gained a much better understanding of the detailed geology at Plateau. Reprocessing of historical geophysical data identified a high chargeable anomaly and our Rockfire team decided to test a new geological theory by drilling into the centre of the geophysical anomaly.”
“The chargeable response appears to have been successfully intersected and has proven to host significant sulphide mineralisation. The sulphides occur in a breccia and within a sulphide-rich rhyolite. This is deemed significant by our technical team, as the Mt Wright gold mine (+1.0 M oz gold) is hosted in similar rock types, with the bulk of gold mineralisation at Mt Wright occurring within a sulphide-rich rhyolite. These findings support the concept that Plateau may host gold mineralisation akin to major, neighbouring, operational gold mines.”
“We look forward to the results and will inform the market as they come to hand.”
