Victoria Gold Corp. (TSX: VGCX) has had further success with its Eagle exploration drilling programme in Canada.
The programme took place from December 2021 through May 2022 and continued on the success of the 2021 Eagle Deep drilling programme.
The 2022 programme focused on key areas for the potential expansion of the Eagle Gold deposit to the west of the existing Eagle Gold pit. In total, 10,342m of diamond drilling in 23 drill holes (average depth of 450m) have added approximately 500m of mineralized strike length from the current Eagle pit boundary.
Highlights of the Eagle exploration programme include:
DG22-1006C:
• 301.0m @ 0.52 g/t Au from 102.0m
including: 69.5m @ 0.72 g/t Au from 244.0m
DG22-1013C:
• 215.0m @ 0.60 g/t Au from 206.5m
including 51.0m @ 0.88 g/t Au from 355.5m
DG22-1017C:
• 72.3m @ 1.14 g/t Au from Surface
including: 32.7m @ 2.24 g/t Au from 50.3m
DG22-1023C:
• 240.3m @ 0.63 g/t Au from 254.0m
including: 78.0m @ 1.29 g/t Au from 284.0m
“Last year’s exploration drilling clearly demonstrated there is more to the Eagle deposit than was captured in the 2019 Technical Report.” President and CEO, John McConnell, said.
“Of particular note from the 2022 campaign, is how a small, focused drilling programme delineated mineralization extensions to the Eagle deposit. This year’s drilling results will be included in an updated Eagle Gold Mineral Resource in Q1 2023.”
