Endomines published an updated mineral resource estimate for its Korvilansuo project along the Karelian gold line. Reporting a 307% increase in contained gold, the updated resource estimate returned 838 200t @ 2.49g/t Au, for 67 000 oz contained gold. According to the company, the mineralization is still open at depth and towards the north and […]

Remaining Assay Results From Kopsa

Northgold reported the remaining gold and copper drill results from its 2023 resource expansion drilling program at the Kopsa gold project. All of the six final holes encountered gold and copper mineralization outside the previously defined resource envelope, e.g. 0.91g/t AuEq over 105.2m, including 13.06g/t AuEq over 3.4m in drill hole NGKOP23029. An updated resource […]

Bonanza Gold Grades From Iceland

St-Georges Eco-Mining reported bonanza gold grades from exploration at its Elbow Creek project in Iceland. Following the acquisition of surface and mineral rights from a private landowner, prospecting at the low sulfidation epithermal Elbow Creek project resulted in multiple samples assaying between 0.1 to 137g/t Au and 0.1 to 1,515 g/t Ag in float and […]

Ikkari Resource Update

Rupert Resources published an updated mineral resource estimate for its Ikkari project. Based on 111,896m of diamond drilling, the updated resource now contains 58.43 Mt @ 2.18g/t Au for a total of 4.09Moz contained gold in the indicated category and 3.58Mt @ 1.18g/t Au for 136,000oz contained gold in the inferred category. Following a previous […]

New Gold Occurrences Identified At Risti

Aurion Resources reported the intersection of four new gold occurrences on its wholly owned Risti project. Targeting geochemical and geophysical anomalies, a 36-hole scout drilling program resulted in the identification of mineralization further to the west of the Vanha prospect (3.63g/t Au over 3.2m) as well as in new intersections along NW trending structures up […]

Copper Assays From Kopsa

Northgold reported copper assays from three important step-out drill holes at its Kopsa project. Following the reception of the copper assays the improved intersections now grade e.g. 0.99g/t AuEq over 105.7m, including 1.41 g/t AuEq over 34.2m and 1.34g/t AuEq over 37.75m in drill hole NGKOP23034. Assays for another 8 drill holes from the 2023 […]

Drilling Underway At Pontio

Gemdale Gold reported the completion of a capital raise as well as encouraging initial results from new drilling at its Pontio Gold project in western Finland. Following the capital raise, the company started drill testing the southern part of the M2 trend, where previous BOT sampling indicates the continuation of gold mineralization. Initial visual results […]

Karelian Gold Line Drill Results

Endomines reported assay results from recent exploration drilling at its Korvilansuo and Kuittila projects along the Karelian gold line. Highlighted assay results at Korvilansuo include e.g. 15.2m @ 3.4g/t Au, including 1.1m @ 19.2g/t Au, and 1.0m @ 15.4g/t Au in drill hole KVS-66 and 3.8m @ 8.4g/t Au, including 1.1m @ 20g/t Au in […]

New Vein Discovery At Nalunaq

Amaroq Minerals reported results from its 2023 exploration drilling program at the Nalunaq project in southern Greenland. Testing the mountain block area in the vicinity of future planned mining activities, drilling returned the highest-grade gold intersections from the main vein to date, with drill hole NAL2305 returning 0.69m @ 182g/t Au. Notably, the drilling program […]

Preliminary Drilling Results From Barsele

Barsele Minerals provided a preliminary summary of drilling activities at the Barsele project. The company’s 2023 diamond drilling program concluded on September 8th with a total of 17 holes drilled, testing five different target areas prospective for intrusion-hosted gold and massive sulfide mineralization.
