BreakerResources NL has kicked off a maiden drilling program at itsDuketon Northgold project in Western Australia, it said July 18.

The 3,500-meter program will test a 4-kilometer-longgold-in-soil anomaly, which the company identified in 2015. Thegold potential of the area is largely untested as historical exploration hasfocused on nickel, the company said.

Drilling is expected to take two weeks.

A week ago, Breaker started a 4,000-meter at its gold project 100kilometers east of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia to test a high-grade anomaly.
