{kanada_flagge}After weather-related delays, Queensland Gold Hills Corp. (TSX.V:OZAU; OTCQB:MNNFF; FRA:MB3) has secured a drill rig and crew for the upcoming first drilling campaign on its Big Hill license. The project is located in the historic Talgai goldfield in Queensland, Australia. Initial plans are to drill approximately 2,000 meters of reverse circulation drilling in 15 to 20 holes. Drilling is expected to commence this week.
Queensland Gold Hills is targeting modern systematic exploration methods in the historic Queensland gold fields. The Big Hill Gold Project and Titan Project together cover 110 square kilometers and host 54 high-grade historic gold mines in the Talgai Goldfields of the expanded Warwick-Texas District.
Blair Way, CEO of Queensland Gold Hill, said, “Exploration teams and equipment are in high demand in the current climate and we are very pleased to have secured the world-class team at Durock for our important inaugural drilling program. We can’t wait to begin this second phase of our 2022 field exploration program, where we will test the highest priority targets we have identified through systematic data review and ground investigation. This is a major step forward in our efforts to apply modern exploration techniques to this historic and proven area. We look forward to providing further updates and progress reports as the season progresses.
Big Hill – a mining camp with a rich history
The Big Hill gold property consists of a single exploration permit covering 24 square kilometers and includes two separate mining leases. The permit covers the historic Big Hill, Queenslander, Monte Cristo and Sultan & Taylor mines on the Talgai goldfield. Talgai is one of eight historic goldfields in the broader Warwick Texas district that were active in the late 19th century and include the Canal Creek, Thanes Creek, Leyburn, Palgrave, Pikedale, Lucky Valley, and MacDonald goldfields. Both alluvial and reef mining was conducted at these mines, with the Queenslander mine standing out as the first gold mine in the state of Queensland with a total production of 4.1 kilos of gold at an average grade of 50 g/t. In some cases, peak grades of up to 4000 g/t were reported. The majority of production at the historic mines in the Warwick-Texas district occurred from the initial discovery in 1864 to the early 1900s. Smaller-scale activity continued intermittently through the 20th century, with many of the larger historic mines remaining under mining leases, but with limited modern exploration to date.
