“2020 is expected to be another exciting year for White Gold as we diamond drill test recent discoveries at the Ryan’s Surprise and Titan targets, as well as advance other high-priority targets across our expansive land package,” Vice President of Exploration Terry Brace said. “Extensive review and analysis performed in the off-season has also provided new interpretations on several projects, which we are excited to test.

“We will also continue to develop a better understanding of the geological and structural framework of our targets for follow up drill testing when ready.” The White Gold property hosts the company’s flagship Golden Saddle & Arc deposits, which have a current mineral resource of more than 1 million ounces (oz) gold indicated at 2.26 grams (g) per metric ton (mt) gold and more than 500,000 oz gold inferred at 1.48 g/mt gold. Planned 2020 exploration work on the White Gold property includes 1,500 m of diamond drilling at the Ryan’s Surprise target to test for strike and down-dip extensions of mineralization encountered in 2019, as well as eight RAB drill holes on high priority targets elsewhere on the property.
