Iltani Hits 1m at 1,390 g/t Silver Equivalent at Orient West

Iltani Resources has returned high-grade silver and indium intersections from its Orient West infill drilling in North Queensland. The best interval, from 104 metres down-hole, graded 1 metre at 192 grams per tonne silver, 925 g/t indium, 1.8% lead, and 13.9% zinc for 1,390 g/t silver equivalent.

Iltani has completed 65 reverse-circulation holes for 12,297 metres out of a planned 110-hole program at the Orient silver-indium project near Herberton. Two rigs are working: one on Orient West infill, the other now starting infill at Orient East. The company expects results to keep flowing over the coming months as it works to close the gap between the two zones and test extensions along strike.

Further high-grade intersections came from holes ORR151 and ORR158. ORR151 returned 1 metre at 358 g/t silver, 213 g/t indium, 7.6% lead, and 7.3% zinc for 1,092 g/t silver equivalent from 49 metres. ORR158 delivered 1 metre at 46 g/t silver, 811 g/t indium, 0.1% lead, and 12.9% zinc for 1,080 g/t silver equivalent from 242 metres. All three intervals sit at open-pittable depths.
