Far Northern Resources (ASX:FNR) is set to conduct a drilling program on the Bridge Creek mining lease in the Northern Territory, according to a Tuesday filing with the Australian bourse.
The program aims to extend the known resource to the north and the south of the current inferred resource of 1.97 million tonnes at 1.12 grams per tonne grade of gold for 70,560 ounces, the filing said.
It is also designed to test the historical drilling campaign, which returned "exceptional" intercepts, the filing added.
