These holes complete the 2020 core drilling program, composed primarily of large diameter holes to be used for metallurgical column testing.
“We are happy to have all the results in from our 2020 core drilling program, so that we can proceed with the rest of our Phase 3 metallurgical testing,” commented Cal Everett, President and CEO of Liberty Gold.
Five drill holes have been completed, three to extend the D-3 discovery to the south and two as a first test of the large area between the Rangefront Zone and the main area of oxide gold mineralization to the west.
Like Newmont’s Long Canyon deposit, Black Pine represents a growing number of Carlin-style gold systems located off the main Carlin and Cortez trends in underexplored parts of the Great Basin.
