The K8 program has been designed to include 500m of diamond drilling, focusing on the newly-identified conductive plates in a bid to confirm the down-plunge extensions of the prospect.

K8 lies 3km north-east of the K9 prospect. The integration of the historical data at the site from the GTK and Belvedere, when combined with Latitude’s recent drilling results, has delineated a strong mineralisation trend extending more than 250m, which remains open down-dip and along strike.

The KSB project, which has a dominant land position of 1000 square kilometres, sits 185m east of Rovaniemi – the capital of Lapland in northern Finland – and 200km east of the earlier-stage Peräpohja Schist Belt project (PSB), which is also owned by Latitude. As well as being highly-prospective for a large-scale gold operation, KSB also hosts the third-biggest undeveloped cobalt deposit in Europe.

As the company pushes on with its exploration activities, the K8 prospect stands out as a tantalising target that could significantly contribute to the overall resource potential of the KSB project. So, drilling in next few months at K8 and K9 has the potential to really shape the operation.
