Anglo Australian looks like it is well and truly onto something now at its Mandilla East project near Kambalda in Western Australia. Latest eye-catching drill intersections include a staggering 112m-wide zone going 1.5 g/t gold from just 41m down-hole and a 93m-wide hit going 3.11 g/t gold from 49m. Anglo is now working double time to unearth the full extent of this remarkable mineralised zone.

Anglo Australian Resources' diamond drilling campaign at its Mandilla East gold prospect near Kalgoorlie has returned a wide interval of 60.2 metres grading 3.79 grams per tonne gold from 65.8m down-hole and 64.7m @ 0.71g/t gold from 183m in the same drill hole. The company added that Mandilla East may be suitable for a future bulk tonnage, low-grade, open cut gold mining operation.

Anglo Australian Resources is set to ramp up exploration of its Mandilla gold project south of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, after securing commitments for a $1.4 million share placement priced at 6.5 cents. Proceeds from the placement will also be used for further infill drilling and ongoing feasibility study work for the company's flagship Feysville gold project also near Kalgoorlie.

WA-based juniors Titan Minerals, Coziron Resources, Galan Lithium, Anglo Australian Resources, and Big River Gold have announced share placement activity on the ASX today.

Anglo Australian Resources has intersected encouraging, high-grade gold intersections at its Mandilla East and Mandilla South prospects, part of the Mandilla gold project located 75km south of Kalgoorlie, WA. At Mandilla East, multiple intercepts were returned beneath an existing supergene zone, including 2.7m @ 46.1g/t gold from 123.3m down-hole, which incorporated a metre intersection grading 122.3g/t gold from 124.3m.

Anglo Australian Resources' drilling program has intersected gold mineralisation at two prospects within its Koongie Park project near Halls Creek in Western Australia's Kimberley region. One of the holes at the Bull Dog prospect returned a peak result of 1m @ 11.27g/t gold from 22m down-hole while a hole at the Nicolsons East prospect returned 3m @ 1g/t gold from 23m, including 1m @ 1.49g/t gold from 24m.

Anglo Australian Resources has confirmed that supergene gold mineralisation at the Think Big prospect within its flagship Feysville project near Kalgoorlie is largely continuous over 200m of strike and up to 80m wide. Infill drilling recorded a top result of 10 metres grading 10 grams per tonne gold from 23 metres down-hole, including a peak 1m intersection grading 76.1g/t gold.

Anglo Australian Resources' infill drilling at the Mandilla South prospect of its Mandilla project near Kambalda, WA, has intersected central core of higher-grade supergene enriched gold with hits of up to 1m @ 5.59g/t gold. Drilling also confirmed the presence of primary gold mineralisation and the potential to link the Mandilla South prospect and the Mandilla East resource into a 4km long camp scale target.

Anglo Australian Resources has commenced RC drilling at its Koongie Park project near Halls Creek, WA, with holes targeting the Bulldog and Nicolsons East prospects where quartz vein outcrops have recorded high-grade gold values. The project has geology that is similar to Pantoro Limited's neighbouring Nicolsons Gold Project, which currently produces about 55,000 ounces of gold per annum.

Anglo Australian Resources has outlined a maiden mineral resource of 2.86 million tonnes grading 1.3g/t gold for 116,100 gold ounces at its Feysville project, 14km from Kalgoorlie, WA. The new estimate is complemented by excellent metallurgical results for the deposit's ores, which show a 99.5% recovery for the near-surface, supergene gold mineralisation that makes it ideal for potential toll milling options in the immediate area.

Anglo Australian Resources has started a 52 hole infill drilling campaign at the Mandilla South target of its Mandilla gold project located 20km southwest of Kambalda and along strike from the East Mandilla resource. This campaign will define initial bedrock drilling targets for a future reverse circulation drilling campaign within the extensive supergene-enriched gold blanket.

Anglo Australian Resources has started an extensive drilling campaign that is aimed at fast-tracking development of its Feysville gold project, located 14km southeast of Kalgoorlie. The campaign includes infill drilling on the higher-grade core of the Think Big deposit and will also test shallow high-grade supergene gold mineralisation at the Saintly prospect and evaluate the potential for economic gold mineralisation at the Hyperno prospect.

Anglo Australian will soon start its maiden exploratory RC drilling campaign at the Koongie Park gold project near Halls Creek in WA after receiving all site clearances to commence the field program. The company will target the Nicolsons East and Bulldog prospects, which lie in same prospective shear zone as Pantoro Limited's Nicolsons underground gold mine, that reported a mineral resource of 393,000 ounces in May last year.

Anglo Australian Resources has defined a mineralised gold zone over 2.5km long and up to 250m wide at its Mandilla project located near Kambalda in WA. The company is now on the hunt for the bedrock source of the mineralisation, which it believes lies at the sheared geological contact between a granite and a sedimentary sequence that will undergo future deep drill testing, according to Anglo.

Anglo Australian has outlined a suite of shallow new drilling intersections from several prospects at its Feysville gold project located near Kalgoorlie. At Think Big, results included 28m @ 2.43g/t gold from 35m down-hole, whilst exploratory drilling at Saintly doubled the strike length of that mineralisation. A new gold discovery was also located at Hyperno, with 13m @ 1.05g/t gold returned from 25m down-hole in regional aircore drilling.

Anglo Australian Resources has gone back to the future to squeeze more ounces out of a gold prospect near Kalgoorlie that netted it a tidy sum of gold back in 2006 and 2007. The company has kicked off a 70 hole drill campaign to revisit the Mandilla project where it previously identified a near-surface weathered bedrock target with a strike of more than 1.5km.

Anglo Australian Resources has identified a new 200m long zone of mineralisation parallel and to the west of the very prospective Ethereal Shear Zone at its Feysville Gold Project, just 14km south of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia. The best result from the drilling campaign was a 20m intersection grading 2.41g/t gold from 96m at the main Think Big prospect.

Anglo Australian's Kalgoorlie gold play is hurtling headlong towards a maiden resource after multiple successful passes with the drill rig produced gold intersections going up to 6 ounces to the tonne just 14km from the super pit. The project is located on the Norseman-Wiluna Belt which plays host to a number of major deposits including the 3moz New Celebration and 15m ounce St Ives gold mines.
