Saturn Metals Limited announced that a 5,000 meter 75 hole RC drilling program is underway to create opportunities to further expand and develop the 1.47Moz1 Apollo Hill Gold Mineral Resource. Drilling is planned to target both northern and central parts of the gold deposit at relatively shallow depths average hole depth of program only 65 meter. In the central area of the deposit Plate 1 a section of representative geology is being targeted with a higher density drill program to outline material for Saturn's planned bulk sample and pilot heap leach process.

In the north of the deposit, previously reported step out intersections included 7m @ 11.18g/t Au from 172m in AHRC0813 and several holes are planned to explore for extensional mineralisation outside of the current Mineral Resource. Apollo Hill (29.15°S and 121.68°E) is located approximately 60km south-east of Leonora in the heart of WA's goldfields region. The deposit and the Apollo Hill project are 100% owned by Saturn and are surrounded by good infrastructure and several significant gold deposits.

The Apollo Hill Project has the potential to become a large tonnage, simple metallurgy, low strip open pit mining operation. In addition, Saturn has a second quality gold exploration project in Australia. The Company has an option to earn an 85% joint venture interest in the West Wyalong Project, which represents a high-grade vein opportunity on the highly gold prospective Gilmore suture within the famous Lachlan Fold belt of NSW.
