Current depth: 1438.6 m We've successfully drilled through all the cement in the hole and have now started drilling into the orthopyroxenites of the Lower Zone. We're incredibly excited to be drilling in the Bushveld Complex again, and we look forward to intercepting more lithologies as we continue our drilling project. The drilling team is working tirelessly with exceptional dedication, and we are deeply grateful for their tireless efforts.
