NV Gold Mobilizes Drill Rig To Slumber Gold Project
VANCOUVER - NV Gold Corporation reported that its contracted reverse circulation (RC) drill rig has arrived on site at the 100% controlled and fully permitted Slumber Gold Project located approximately 50 miles northwest of Winnemucca, Humboldt County. Drilling at Slumber is anticipated to commence at the end of the week and will encompass up to 2,500 meters in up to 10 RC drill holes. In addition to the drill program at Slumber, RC drilling will soon commence at the Company's 100% controlled Sandy Gold Project, located in Lyon County, Nevada.
"We are excited to commence the RC drill program at our Slumber Gold Project. Nevada is experiencing one of its busiest exploration seasons in years, and therefore, drilling at the Slumber and Sandy Gold Projects has been slightly delayed due to the lack of available drill rigs. Targets identified by our technical team at both Slumber and Sandy are exceptional and may potentially host buried high-grade gold vein systems," said, Peter A. Ball, President and CEO.
