Mineral exploration and development company Alba Minerals is about to start diamond drilling at the Clogau-St David’s gold mine, in north Wales, in what the company says is probably the first such a campaign.
Historic mining at Clogau-St David’s was limited to the mining of visible gold, but Alba believes that that modern exploration techniques will maximise the prospects for unearthing new zones of economic gold mineralisation and extensions to existing mine workings.
