K2 Gold drills 39.6m of 5.35 g/t Au at Dragonfly Zone, Mojave Project. 14,000m program ongoing with 12 holes pending assays. High-grade oxide system confirmed.
K2 Gold Corp reported assays from the first three holes of its fully funded 14,000-metre drill campaign at the Mojave Project in Nevada. The results confirm a high-grade oxide gold system in a 40-metre step-out north of the company's 2020 discovery intercepts, the company said.
Hole DF26-020 returned 39.62 metres grading 5.35 grams per tonne gold. Hole DF26-019 intersected 10.67 metres of 7.75 g/t Au. Hole DF26-018 returned 18.29 metres of 3.77 g/t Au. The three holes were drilled from the first pad at the Dragonfly Zone, part of the more than 6.5-kilometre-long Eastside Gold Trend.
John Robins, Executive Chairman of K2, called the results "exceptionally pleasing." He said the work indicates "a very large mineralized system" with multiple stacked oxide gold structures.
Anthony Margarit, President and CEO, said the three holes represent a step into previously untested ground and "demonstrate the potential to extend mineralization beyond our previous drilling."
The 14,000-metre reverse-circulation program is the largest ever on the 100%-owned property. Assays are pending for 12 holes already drilled, the company said. K2 Gold trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker KTO.
