Bluejay Mining PLC Announces Follow Up Drilling Underway at Enonkoski - Seite 2
Thomas Levin, COO of Bluejay subsidiary FinnAust Mining Finland Oy ('FinnAust'), commented: "Given the unusually high demand for diamond drill rigs throughout Finland at
present, I am delighted that our drilling contractor has been able to provide us with a rig for a short time window, allowing us to complete this high priority follow up drill hole in the
Laukunlampi intrusion. The drilling and downhole geophysics completed in January-February were completed significantly under budget, which is a testament to FinnAust's ability to operate cost
effective exploration programmes in Finland and has allowed us to add this extra drill hole within the current stage of JV funding for the Enonkoski Project.
"The current hole tests a NNW-SSE trending and NNW plunging magnetic anomaly that is coincident with an untested airborne EM conductor, as well as dense gravity response that supports the
presence of favourable pyroxenites. We have several independent geophysical proxies aligning, which in combination with the increasing sulphide content and nickel tenor observed as we move to the
northwest of the intrusion, makes for a compelling drill target".

Figure 2. Plan view (looking down) of the north-west - south-east trending elongated Laukunlampi intrusion with the location of the recently drilled ENON0028 and ENON0027 drill holes indicated (see RNS dated 27 March 2023) and drill hole ENON0029 currently in progress. Former historical drill holes are also displayed. Colours on drill-holes represent different lithologies. The modelled pyroxenite (red solid) and the mafic-ultramafic Laukunlampi intrusive (green solid) are both open towards north and north-west towards an area with no historic drilling. The NNW-SSE trending and NNW plunging magnetic model (black solid rectangles) is coincident with a local conductor also untested by drilling. The distance between hole collars of ENON0028 and the current hole ENON0029 is 435m.
