Venus Metals Corporation Limited: RC Drilling Commenced Youanmi Vanadium Oxide Project
![Venus Metals Corporation Limited: RC Drilling Commenced Youanmi Vanadium Oxide Project](https://www.minenportal.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
- The drilling is designed to convert part of the JORC 2012 inferred mineral resource of 110.6 million tonnes @ 0.30% V2O5 into a large measured oxide resource from surface to 45m depth.
- Once a measured resource is achieved it will support the Scoping Study that is currently in progress.
- The majority of the drilling will be carried out on a 40 by 80m spacing over a strike length of 2km.
- RC drill program will also deliver a 100 tonne bulk sample for advanced metallurgical test work.
