ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA / ACCESS Newswire / August 10, 2025 / Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(FRA:BGD3)(OTCQB:BGDFF) (Barton or Company) is pleased to confirm diamond drilling (DD) has commenced at the Tolmer prospect, located at the Company’s South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola). An initial program of 3 holes totalling ~550 metres drilling is planned in the ‘eastern gold zone’ to investigate local structural controls and guide future targeting.
Full details are contained in the complete announcement, which can be accessed on the ASX website, the investor section of Barton’s website, or directly by clicking here.
Commenting on the Tolmer diamond drilling, Barton Managing Director Alexander Scanlon said:
“Tolmer is an exciting new discovery located between our existing Central Gawler Mill and planned Tunkillia mill. With gold and silver grades up to 83.6g/t Au and 17,600g/t Ag, Tolmer has clear potential to add significant value to our regional development strategy. This diamond drilling will help improve our local structural knowledge as we work to identify the origins of such high-grade mineralisation.”
