St George Mining (ASX: SGQ) has now commenced an initial 3000 metre drilling program at the company's wholly owned East Laverton Property in the North-Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia.
The drilling is targeting high priority gold targets, with St George also commencing a magnetic survey next month - with additional drilling to then follow the airborne survey.
John Prineas, executive chairman, commented "Our exploration results at East Laverton have been highly encouraging and we are excited to commence test drilling of our very attractive gold targets."
The East Laverton Property is strategically located about 130 kilometres south-east of Laverton and 200 kilometres northeast of Kalgoorlie, and covers a contiguous area of 1,810 square kilometres.
St George's tenements cover the southern continuation of the highly prospective Duketon Belt.
The northern part of the belt has already yielded several recent nickel sulphide discoveries, including the Rosie Prospect (70% Independence Group NL (ASX: IGO) and 30% South Boulder Mines Limited (ASX: STB)).
The first assays from the new round of drilling are expected in four to six weeks.
