The Edwards south area reported rock chips up to 1.2 grams per tonne from breccia zones and is estimated to have 1 to 2 kilometres of strike potential.
Meanwhile, grades up to 15.82% copper and 4.7 grams per tonne gold were reported at Clements Copper.
“These are excellent initial results from the Terra Search programme at White Mountains and these are only the first results back from the assay laboratory. I look forward to reporting further significant results over the coming weeks as we prepare for a drilling programme at White Mountains,” said Richard Poulden, chairman of Wishbone.
The news has resulted in Wishbones shares surging higher. Shortly after the opening bell, they reached highs of 12.30p; however, they have given up some gains and are now trading at 10.80p, up 13.68%.
