Minimal work has been completed historically at the Lakeview Prospect. Workings from the early 1900’s are present over 2km of strike and vary from open stopping at surface to small exploratory pits and shafts, with only three RC drill holes drilled by Reed Resources in the early 2000’s.
A major East-West fault system is developed in ultramafic lithologies adjacent to a granite contact. Gorilla targeted coincident major structures, surface geochemistry and historic gold mining efforts in a scout drilling program in February 2025 and intersected significant thick, high-grade gold mineralisation.
Drilling intercepts from Lakeview include:
The mineralisation encountered is associated with quartz veining, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite sulphide development within quartz-carbonate veins and surrounding biotite-chlorite-actinolite altered and strongly deformed ultramafic units associated with the Lakeview fault structure.
