In a news release, Vancouver-based precious metals exploration and development company Newrange Gold Corp. (NRG:TSX.V; NRGOF:OTC) announced that it has lined up a drilling contractor to commence operations on May 28 at its Pamlico Gold Project in Nevada. The firm indicated that it has already completed road work and site preparation for the first holes to be drilled and that it has submitted all necessary applications for permitting the balance of the program to the State of Nevada's Bureau of Land Management.
The company noted that the drill crew will be required to adhere to very strict on- and off-site COVID-19 safety protocols in order to protect the health of all of its employees and contractors.
The company's CEO Robert Archer remarked, "We have made significant progress in our understanding of the geological setting at Pamlico since our last drilling campaign in 2018 and we are keen to test some of the new ideas that have come out of that work...The combination of underground mapping and sampling with the Induced Polarization (IP) geophysics has allowed us to better target our drilling. We have seen a good correlation between the IP and known gold-pyrite mineralization, which bodes well for testing the new targets across the 3 kilometer-wide area of immediate interest within the much larger Pamlico Property."
The company advised that the first phase of operations will include drilling 30-35 holes totaling around 3,000-3,500 meters mostly along Pamlico Ridge. Drill operations will first employ reverse circulation (RC) drilling to test the continuity of near-surface gold mineralization around and between the historic workings of the Pamlico, Gold Bar and Good Hope Mines. After the permits for the additional sites are approved and roadwork is completed, drilling will continue at those sites with a combination of RC and diamond drilling in new deeper target areas. The entire drill program is expected to last a couple of months and is expected to encompass up to 10,000 meters when complete.
Newrange Gold Corp. is a Vancouver, B.C.-based precious metals exploration and development company that focuses its efforts primarily on near to intermediate term production opportunities in Nevada, Colorado and Ontario.
