Liberty Gold Achieves Significant Oxide Gold Drill Results
Exciting Drill Results from Liberty Gold's Discovery Zone
1.53 g/t Au over 85.3 meters, including 5.19 g/t Au over 9.1 meters in LBP1171
1.17 g/t Au over 59.4 meters, including 3.44 g/t Au over 15.2 meters in LBP1155
Liberty Gold Corp. (TSX: LGD; OTCQX: LGDTF) has recently unveiled promising oxide gold assay results from its ongoing drill program at the Black Pine Gold Project. These remarkable findings emerge from nine infill drill holes in the Discovery Zone, located in Idaho. The company's focus is on a robust feasibility drill initiative aimed at supporting resource conversion and optimizing mine design, which spans approximately 40,000 meters.
Overview of the Discovery Zone and Recent Findings
The drill holes strategically target areas previously defined mainly through historical data, seeking to enhance the confidence in the mineralization and metallurgical models. Notably, the drill results highlight a significant intercept from hole LBP1171, which ranks among the top ten unmined intercepts at Black Pine based on grade-thickness. This finding confirms an extension of a previously extracted high-grade shoot in the historic B Pit area, thereby contributing valuable information for the upcoming feasibility resource model.
Drill Results: Key Highlights
Initial results from the first nine holes of a planned 35-40 hole program showcase:
- 5.19 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 9.1 meters, including a remarkable 21.3 g/t Au over 1.5 meters within LBP1171.
- 3.44 g/t Au over 15.2 meters within a broader interval of 1.17 g/t Au over 59.4 meters in hole LBP1155.
- 2.44 g/t Au over 10.7 meters within 1.16 g/t Au over 27.4 meters in hole LBP1168.
- 2.35 g/t Au over 10.7 meters within 1.17 g/t Au over 25.9 meters in hole LBP1139.
- 1.84 g/t Au over 7.6 meters within 0.53 g/t Au over 51.8 meters in hole LBP1163.
- 1.10 g/t Au over 6.1 meters within 0.57 g/t Au over 91.4 meters in LBP1143.
Continued Drilling and Future Plans
The results from this drilling phase not only affirm the continuity of high-grade oxide mineralization but also bolster the existing grade modeling crucial for the feasibility study. It is reassuring that drilling has validated the metallurgical models employed in previous assessments, with all intercepts enhancing our understanding of the highest recovery metallurgical zones as determined by cyanide soluble assays.
Next Steps for Liberty Gold
As of now, the company operates one reverse circulation (RC) rig focused on resource conversion activities within the Discovery Zone, complemented by geotechnical drill holes. Additional RC rigs are engaged in both resource expansion and metallurgical sampling within the Rangefront area, with all teams working tirelessly to maximize efficiency.
Alongside these efforts, a third RC rig is tasked with hydrologic monitoring holes, aimed at transitioning towards exploration holes in Rangefront upon completion. Notably, early next month, a geotechnical rig is set to arrive, further enhancing site investigations essential for soil engineering works.
