Bacchus Marsh Coal Test Drilling Beats Expectations




MANTLE Mining says the results of early exploration drilling on its Bacchus Marsh brown coal project have exceeded expectations.

The project is estimated to have an exploration target of 1-2 billion tonnes of brown coal.
The West Australian-based company today reported to the Australian Stock Exchange that the first four holes of a 15 hole drill program have been completed.

More than 50 metres of coal thickness was found in two of the holes.

The total cumulative coal thickness of 146 metres found in the first four holes was also a 25 per cent increase on the 116 metres initially expected.
