Moho Resources Extends High-Grade Gold Vein to 130m at Bush Chook Project

Exploration Breakthrough at Bush Chook

Moho Resources Ltd (ASX, MOH) has announced a significant extension of a high-grade gold vein at its newly acquired Bush Chook Gold Project in Western Australia's Pilbara Craton. Recent drone surveys and geological mapping have pushed the strike length of a previously identified quartz vein to over 130 meters, with an apparent thickness of approximately 20 meters. Historical rock chip samples from this vein have returned impressive gold grades up to 13.4 grams per tonne, underscoring the potential of this discovery.

The company has completed new rock chip sampling along the extended strike length, with assay results expected within the next three to four weeks. This rapid turnaround is part of Moho’s aggressive exploration strategy to fast-track drill target identification and resource definition.

Leveraging Advanced Technology and Historical Data

Moho is combining cutting-edge drone orthophotography with reprocessed hyperspectral data from a 2006 HyMap survey to refine its exploration focus. The hyperspectral survey has revealed mineralogical anomalies, particularly pyrophyllite dickite signatures, that align closely with historic soil geochemistry. These anomalies highlight potential zones of alteration and mineralisation that may host additional gold deposits.

This integrated approach is designed to efficiently pinpoint drill targets across the expansive Bush Chook tenure, which lies within the Mosquito Creek Basin. The basin shares remarkable geological similarities with the nearby Mallina Basin, home to Northern Star Resources’ prolific Hemi gold deposit, which boasts over 11 million ounces of gold.

Strategic Location and Next Steps

Strategically, Bush Chook neighbours AIM Mining Corp’s Nullagine Gold Project, which has historically produced over half a million ounces of gold. The proximity to established infrastructure, including the Golden Eagle processing plant, enhances the project's logistical appeal.

Moho’s Chairman, Peter Christie, emphasized the company’s commitment to rapid progress, stating that the team has wasted no time in mobilizing fieldwork and leveraging both new and legacy datasets to accelerate exploration. Further field mapping, soil sampling, and geological assessments are planned to complement the pending assay results and guide upcoming drilling campaigns.

While the project is still at an early stage, with tenement applications and land access agreements pending, the initial findings and technological approach position Moho Resources as a company to watch in the Pilbara gold exploration space.
