Manhattan District Has Potential Of Becoming Muli-Million-Ounce Gold Resource
VANCOUVER - Scorpio Gold Corp. reported on its drilling campaign at the Manhattan District Project, Nevada. Under new management, the 2024 drilling campaign had two goals: (1) drilling to support an open-pit focused, maiden mineral resource estimate, and (2) drilling to test expansion potential of the Goldwedge Underground Stope Trend and the Reliance Fault to the northwest of the historic Manhattan open pits. Hole 24MN-009 tested the Goldwedge Trend successfully, extending mineralization and adding to the prior results.
Vice President of Exploration, Harrison Pokrandt, said, "Hole 24MN-009 undercuts the underground workings and previous drilling along the Goldwedge Trend. The 1.69 g/t over 55.7 metres interval further strengthens our belief that the Goldwedge Trend has open pit potential at Manhattan. Results from the 2024 drilling campaign are strengthening our belief in Manhattan's potential as a multi-million-ounce gold resource in Nevada."
