West Wits Mining (WWI) has completed the ground survey program at its Mt Cecelia Project in Western Australia.

The survey was a moving loop transient electromagnetic surveying (MLTEM) and confirmed all four high-priority targets are related to legitimate bedrock conductors.

Managing Director Jac van Heerden said the ground surveys pave the way for geological mapping and surface sampling programs.

These sampling programs will commence this month, finishing before the northwest WA’s summer cyclone season.

“Once completed, the results from all of the programs carried out in the 2021 field program will be further analysed to clearly define our targets for the maiden drilling program to commence at Mt Cecelia in 2022,” Mr van Heerden said.

Commenting on the MLTEM survey results is prominent consultant geophysicist Russell Mortimer.

“Recent MLTEM survey results/target outcomes, particularly for the SGC_1 target looks compelling with the bedrock conductor now confirmed as being discrete in nature, high conductance and highlighting a clear spatial correlation with a zone of de-magnetisation/magnetic source complexity,” he said.

On the market this morning, West Wits was down 2.04 per cent and is trading at 4.8 cents per share at 10:38 am AEST.
