Kalamunda, WA / March 6, 2018 / JMN Wire / Comet Resources Limited (ASX: CRL) (Comet) conducted a 220 sq km detailed aeromagnetic survey over the Springdale Graphite Project in Western Australia (ASX release 10th November 2017). Interpretation of this survey delineated 26 kilometres of stratigraphy deemed to be prospective for graphite mineralisation (currently less than 20% tested). Comet’s current drill program has already made a new high grade graphite discovery. This new discovery along with the Western Zone, discovered in 2016, and the Eastern Zone, discovered in 2017, demonstrates the prospectivity of the Springdale Project.
