Klondike Gold Corp has announced 2023 mapping, rock sampling and diamond drilling results from five holes at the Gold Run target on its 100% owned Klondike District Property in Canada’s Yukon territory.
The gold exploration company said 10 rock grab samples from the Gold Run target assayed up to 74.6 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, with six of the samples containing visible gold.
"From the limited amount of exploration we've completed over several years at the remote Gold Run Target, we've learned that it's geology, geochemistry and structural controls are quite different from that of the Lone Star/Stander/Gay Gulch areas, where we've begun to build our gold mineral resources," Klondike Gold CEO Peter Tallman said in a statement.
"Gold Run remains an important target area within our Klondike district project but is at an early exploration stage compared to the development work being done elsewhere," he added.
Klondike Gold noted that prospecting, mapping, and diamond drilling was conducted at the Gold Run gold target over a 2.0 kilometre (km) by 1.5 km area located 50 km southeast of mineral resources estimated at the Lone Star and Stander Zones and 20 km southeast of the Dominion gold target at the south-east end of the property.
The company added that a total of five drill holes totaling 524m tested the Gold Run target along a 500m strike length and across a width of 150m, with all drill holes intersecting gold bearing sheeted veins.
Klondike Gold is a Vancouver-based gold exploration company advancing its 100%-owned Klondike District gold project located at Dawson City, Yukon, one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world.
