Tajha Pritchard
Antipa Minerals, the Australian exploration company, has unveiled its 2024 exploration plans for the Paterson and Wilki farm-in projects, fully funded by strategic partners. The Paterson program will kick off in August 2023, consisting of a comprehensive 9000m drill program to test multiple high-priority gold-copper targets, utilizing diamond core drilling, reverse circulation (RC) drilling, and air core drilling. Concurrently, Antipa will conduct ongoing exploration activities to identify new targets, enhancing the potential for significant discoveries.
At the Wilki project, Antipa plans 2300m of RC drilling to assess prospects like Havieron, Winu, and Telfer, located near Newcrest's Telfer gold-copper-silver mine. These activities are part of an existing $60 million farm-in agreement, fully funded by Newcrest.
Antipa's management expressed excitement about systematically testing high-potential targets, fueling growth and pursuing multiple major gold-copper discoveries. These ambitious exploration programs position Antipa Minerals as a key player in Australia's mining landscape.
