Bullfrog Gold Corp (OTCBB:BFGC) is pleased to announce it has staked an additional 160 lode mining claims around its Newsboy Project located 45 miles NW of Phoenix, Arizona. These claims were duly recorded on March 15, 2013 with the US Bureau of Land Management and Maricopa County in Arizona.
Many shallow shafts, prospect pits and significant mineralized outcrops are present on these new claims, but no significant exploration has been conducted and there are no records of historic production. Project land holdings now approximate 7,400 acres within 250 lode claims, 12 placer claims, 3 State Exploration permits and two patented claims, much of which has been intensely altered by hydrothermal mineralizing solutions.
The Company's Phase 3 drill program was completed on March 9, 2013 and included 8,340 feet of drilling in 26 holes. Results on the first five holes in the Queen of Sheba area were released on February 25, 2013. Remaining Phase 3 results will be released upon receipt and study of final assays and drill data. Upon converting all relevant historic drill data in electronic format, the Company plans to engage an independent group to update resources before the end of 2013.
