SYDNEY: Rox Resources confirmed it has commenced a substantial drilling program at the Mt Fisher Gold Project which is located in the north eastern Yilgarn Craton.

This program is designed to extend these resources and also to follow up new target zones via: RC follow-up drilling of 2017 Aircore and other historical gold intersections which show strong potential to add significant gold resources; Testing of regional priority gold targets with Aircore drilling.
