North Fork Gold Zone Extended; Intersects Gold At Fondaway Canyon
TORONTO - Getchell Gold Corp. reported the results for the North Fork Zone drill hole FCG21-10, part of the ongoing 2021 drill program at the Fondaway Canyon Gold project in Nevada. Hole FCG21-10 intersected the North Fork Gold Zone mineralization over 82.2m that included the following notable drill intercepts: 3.0 g/t Au over 41.6m that included 47.0 g/t Au over 1.5m, the highest-grade gold intercept in the 40+ year drilling history of the Project; 4.6 g/t Au over 9.8m; and 1.0 g/t Au over 14.3m.
Hole FCG21-10 intersected North Fork up-dip from FCG20-04 that graded 2.5 g/t Au over 58.0m; Assays are pending for holes FCG21-11 through FCG21-14, that targeted the Colorado SW and Juniper gold zones; and Hole FCG21-15 targeting the down dip extent of the Colorado SW gold zone is in progress.
"The latest results are a prime example of why the gold mineralizing system at the Fondaway Canyon Gold Project is so compelling. The Project is host to an enviable setting comprised of very high-grade gold bearing structures that are themselves hosted within broader and thicker zones of mineralization. The grades and thicknesses that have become apparent at Fondaway Canyon rival many of our peers in a world class gold district," said Mike Sieb, President.
