Company’s Resource Growth Potential
The company’s drill results exhibit resource growth potential. Recent results of the ongoing 90,000 metre drilling program, confirmed the potential for growth. Of 82 holes have been drilled on the target, with drilling testing mineralization to an average vertical depth of only 75 metres.
“These results are the continuation of the results we released last month, confirming and expanding one of three new discoveries at our Enchi Gold Project. These results and new discoveries confirm the potential for Enchi to host additional deposits.”
Luke Alexander, CEO
These positive results show an expansion of the new discovery at Enchi and confirmed “the potential for resource growth across the Project”, which is a district scale property located on a very productive gold belt. The gold belt hosts a series of multi-million-ounce gold mines.
Since 2020, the 90,000 metre discovery and resource expansion has yielded impressive results, expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2022. The programme has extensively used both Reverse Circulation (RC) and diamond drilling to assess the possible extension of resource at the Enchi Gold Project.
The company’s drilling program has extended mineralization on the central portion of the main structure by 100 metres to the south, intersecting 1.64 g/t Au over 10.0 metres from 158 metres.
With respect to the drilling programme, all of the zones demarcated represent high priority targets based on geological, geochemical and geophysical surface work and previous trenching and drilling.
