Gateway Mining (ASX:GML) said a further 328 gold nuggets for a total of 72.7 grams were collected from new areas within the Great Western splay corridor at the Yandal gold project in Western Australia, confirming that it has the potential to host very substantial gold mineralization, according to a Wednesday Australian bourse filing.

The nuggets were primarily collected along the high-priority "dilation zone", where gold-in-soil anomalies wrap around the margin of the Great Western Intrusive, as well as across a recently mapped dolerite contact.

The firm plans to undertake additional exploration activities to further assess gold within the area.
