NevGold Unveils New Gold-Antimony Drill Results at Limo Butte

Exciting Discoveries at Limo Butte Project
In a significant development, NevGold Corp. is thrilled to announce the latest findings from its ongoing exploration at the Limo Butte Project, a site rich in potential located in Nevada. The Company has uncovered notable oxide gold-antimony drill results, paving the way for promising opportunities in this renowned mining jurisdiction.
Key Findings from Recent Drilling
The exploration efforts have revealed impressive results from the Resurrection Ridge area, with the highlight being:
- Drill hole LB21-002 showcasing 2.19 g/t AuEq over 64.0 meters, composed of 0.72 g/t Au and 0.33% Sb. This noteworthy include sections of: 4.17 g/t AuEq over 24.1 meters and 10.86 g/t AuEq over 4.50 meters.
- Drill hole LB21-003 also contributed positively with 2.68 g/t AuEq over 20.1 meters (1.91 g/t Au and 0.17% Sb).
These results demonstrate the considerable promise of the Limo Butte Project as they reveal gold-antimony mineralization at near-surface levels, which is crucial for potential future resource estimates.
Potential for Resource Estimate
NevGold is eager to exploit the existing data from these drill holes indicating a strong potential to move towards an initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). Resources from these promising sites could drastically improve the value extracted from the Limo Butte Project.
Metallurgical Program Initiatives
In tandem with drilling activities, a robust metallurgical testwork program has commenced, utilizing a substantial bulk sample of over 100 kg taken from the Project. This program is vital for defining the optimal recovery processes for gold and antimony, vital tasks in the path to project development.
Exploration Activities Planned for 2025
The Company is laying out a proactive exploration agenda for 2025 that encompasses:
- Diving deep into historical geological databases focusing on gold and antimony.
- Reanalysis of prior drilling results to unearth new opportunities.
- Executing further drill tests on high-potential targets.
Geological Insights into Limo Butte
The geological characteristics of the Limo Butte Project reveal areas rich in both gold and antimony, the latter being recognized as a critical mineral. Significant mineralization footprints have been identified, correlating with renowned host rocks known for Carlin-type gold mineralization.
Historical Mining Context
Historical data demonstrates previous mining activities within the Project's vicinity, underscoring its rich mineral potential. Reports indicate the presence of historic operations such as the Nevada Antimony Mine which extracted valuable stibnite, indicating the area's long-standing mineral significance.
Broader Impacts of Antimony
With antimony classified as a critical mineral by the United States, its importance transcends mining and extends to several high-tech and military applications. As domestic sources are limited and reliance on imports poses risks, developing local antimony resources such as those at Limo Butte becomes increasingly vital. The Company is positioned to help address the national supply chain needs.
NevGold's Strategic Positioning
The recent elevation in focus on domestic mineral production coincides with a broader U.S. Government initiative to enhance domestic mining outputs. NevGold's Limo Butte Project sits at the forefront of this movement, with management’s strategies aligning to meet the increasing demand for domestically sourced minerals.
Looking Ahead
As NevGold moves forward, the emphasis will be on advancing drilling programs and metallurgical work while preparing to capitalize on the results from Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley. The commitment to local mineral development is unwavering, seen through the active exploration and stringent quality measures in place.
