Cadence Minerals (AIM: KDNC) is pleased to note that ASX listed Evergreen Lithium ("EG1") (ASX: EG1) has announced that it is advancing exploration at its wholly-owned Leonora Goldfields Project (LGP) in Western Australia's prolific central goldfields. The Company's geology team recently conducted a multi-day site visit, completing detailed mapping across key prospects - Craig's Rest, Victor Bore, and Great Northern - to finalise targets for an upcoming drilling campaign with the aim to expand the project's 63,000oz gold resource.
