月光资源公司在昆士兰州中部的Leo Grande金矿项目中启动了针对性的金刚石钻孔作业1。该计划涵盖四孔、500米的金刚石钻孔1，旨在获取定向岩芯用于地质建模和冶金测试，为编制首份矿产资源估算做准备1。
此前完成的反循环（RC）钻孔已确定了超过1公里的连贯矿化范围1。第一阶段RC钻孔在每个孔中都发现了金矿，其中最高品位达表面以下40米处1.3克/吨1。第二阶段RC钻孔进一步扩展了已知矿化范围，包括99米深处19米长1.95克/吨的矿段和76米深处40米长1.31克/吨的矿段（其中5米达3.40克/吨）1。
Leo Grande位于面积268平方公里的Clermont金矿项目内，距Clermont镇15公里1。该区域历史开采和资源量超过650万盎司1。月光资源公司总经理格雷格·斯塔尔表示："RC钻孔已大大提升我们对Leo Grande系统规模和连续性的理解，新的金刚石钻孔计划旨在提供更高水平的地质和构造信息。"1
Moonlight Resources is undertaking targeted diamond drilling at its Leo Grande gold project in central Queensland, marking the next phase following completion of reverse circulation (RC) drilling activities.1 The company's two-phase RC drilling program has identified over 1 kilometer of continuous mineralization featuring multiple gold-bearing intervals, and the new diamond drilling phase will extract oriented core samples for geological modeling and metallurgical testing ahead of the company's first mineral resource estimate.1
The four-hole, 500-meter diamond drilling plan follows earlier RC results that established significant gold potential across the project.1 First-phase RC drilling returned gold intersections in every hole, with grades reaching 1.3 grams per tonne at depths up to 40 meters below surface.1 Subsequent drilling extended the known mineralization beyond 1 kilometer, including a 19-meter intersection grading 1.95 grams per tonne at 99 meters depth and a 40-meter zone averaging 1.31 grams per tonne at 76 meters depth, within which a 5-meter section assayed 3.40 grams per tonne.1
Leo Grande is located within Moonlight Resources' 268-square-kilometre Clermont gold project, approximately 15 kilometers from the town of Clermont.1 The broader Clermont project area encompasses historical mining operations and resources exceeding 6.5 million ounces.1 Greg Starr, General Manager of Moonlight Resources, stated that "RC drilling has significantly enhanced our understanding of the scale and continuity of the Leo Grande system, and the new diamond drilling program is designed to provide a higher level of geological and structural information."1
