Cassiar Gold Corp. (TSXV: GLDC) continues to grow the Taurus Deposit, located on company’s flagship Cassiar Gold Property in British Columbia, Canada.
New assay results from an additional nine diamond drill holes that were part of the 2022 exploration programme completed at and near the Taurus Deposit, contribute to the progressive expansion of mineralization both within and near the footprint of the Taurus Deposit and further demonstrate continuity of a higher-grade corridor of gold mineralization at the western extent of the deposit.
Cassiar Gold’s 2022 exploration programme comprised 23,000m in 70 diamond drill holes focused on strategic areas of the Taurus Deposit, as well as significant vein prospects in Cassiar South and other brownfields targets. Results from 13 drill holes totalling 5,259m of drilling from this programme are yet to be disclosed as the company continues to await the return of additional assay results.
Highlights from the Taurus West area:
- Drill hole 22TA-180 intersected 71.6m of 1.54g/t Au from 177.5m down hole, including 23.5m of 3.68g/t Au, expanding mineralization beyond the resource block model along the Taurus West Fault.
- Drill hole 22TA-182 intersected 58.8m of 1.34g/t Au from 194.7m downhole, including 12.8m of 2.41g/t Au, expanding mineralization beyond the extend of the resource block model.
- Drill hole 22TA-174 returned multiple mineralized intercepts, including: 77.2m of 0.67g/t Au from 12.3m downhole, including 24.3m of 1.13g/t Au, confirming near-surface mineralization at Taurus West; and 24.3m of 1.13g/t Au, extending mineralization at depth along the Taurus West Fault, 145m north of previous drilling.
“Our 2022 drill programme at the Taurus Deposit continues to deliver excellent results, with these most recent intercepts highlighting the potential for further expansion of the resource within higher-grade mineralized corridors,” CEO, Marco Roque, said.
“The positive developments from this program reinforce the potential for ongoing growth at Taurus in 2023.”
