Anatolia Energy continues good drill run at Sefaatli

/in /by

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Anatolia Energy (ASX: AEK) has received initial results from a Phase 2 drilling program being carried out at the company’s Sefaatli uranium project in Turkey.

Anatolia said the drilling has continued to intersect up to four stacked lenses, within a number of consistently mineralised horizons at the project’s Deliler prospect.

Drilling at the Deliler prospect intersected further high-grade uranium with four holes returning:

SD79
3.7 metres at 890ppm uranium equivalent from 48.4m including 0.5m at 2,380ppm uranium equivalent;

SD72
1.7m at 1,440ppm uranium equivalent from 67.6m including 0.7m at 3,240ppm uranium equivalent;

SD73
1.4m at 650ppm uranium equivalent from 68.3m including 0.5m at 1,820ppm uranium equivalent; and

SD76
1.3m at 590ppm uranium equivalent from 56.3m including 0.5m at 1,540ppm uranium equivalent;

Other drilling conducted at the Tulu Tepe prospect has extended the mineralisation Anatolia discovered in its Phase I drilling from surface to depths exceeding 90m over an area of at least 1200m by 550m.

The company said the Tulu Tepe mineralisation remains open to the north and northeast where drilling continues.

Anatolia is planning to drill to test the near surface mineralisation discovered to the west of the village of Akcami, and to drill test for extensions within a 15 square kilometre area between Akcami, Tulu Tepe and Deliler.

“We are excited that our Phase 2 drilling continues to extend the uranium mineralisation well beyond our Phase 1 drilling,” Anatolia Energy managing director Paul Cronin said in the company’s announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange.

“Further drilling is now planned to extend the Tulu Tepe mineralisation to the northeast beyond our initial discoveries and into the 3.5 kilometre long prospective corridor that lies between Tulu Tepe and Deliler.

“With our newly discovered mineralisation to the west of the village of Akcami, we have now three uranium prospects requiring in-fill and step out drilling, and a highly prospective area of over 15 square kilometres that has had little to no historic exploration.”
