Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “Drill hole 13 has been a significant breakthrough for the company. In addition to high-grade zinc, we have now identified a new geological unit, a black slate, that we hit for the first time. The black slate unit contains the most sulphides discovered to date in the drilling at Tabasquena.”
“We are very pleased with these results and the major increase in potential open pit material”, said Prime COO Gregory K. Liller. “The successful Prime sampling program, started in September 2019, allowed us to evaluate the tonnage and grade in areas between the unsampled outcrop and the drilled subsurface. The sampling program confirmed our belief that the mineralized zones are substantially wider than previously modeled. We believe our planned 2020 exploration program will build on this success with emphasis on three target efforts: 1) down dip and along strike in the pit areas; 2) between pits to connect them together; and, 3) the remaining 60% of Los Reyes’s undrilled structures where outcrop grab samples are similar to sample results in the Updated Resource.”
Thomas A. Doyle, President, CEO stated: “We recognize the seriousness of the COVID-19 pandemic and we will continue to take precautionary measures. The health and safety of our workforce, their families and the communities in which we operate is paramount and we continue to be dedicated to maintaining a safe work environment.”
