Australia-listed Moab Minerals has completed drilling at the Manyoni uranium project, in Tanzania, and the first batch of assay results is expected in late December or early January.
Moab has now completed the Stage 1 validation drill programme, designed to check and verify a statistically valid number of the historical drill results. The programme has involved 105 core holes for a total of 1 608 m on the Manyoni C1 and A projects.
All holes were designed to twin pre-existing drill holes and to check and verify the uranium results in those holes by physical assay of the Moab drill core and downhole gamma spectral logging for equivalent triuranium octoxide.
A second batch of core samples for the remainder of the drill holes is currently being prepared for shipment to the laboratory.
