Proactive’s Tylah Tully brings us Just The Facts on a 50.85-metre gold intersection grading at 1.43 g/t gold equivalent from Sunstone Metals Ltd (ASX:STM)’s Limon gold-silver discovery in southern Ecuador.
That broad gold hit also carried higher-grade intersections of 5 metres at 5.81 g/t gold equivalent and an impressive silver hit of 0.45 metres at 1,610 g/t gold, offering plenty of potential upside for an upcoming maiden resource estimate.
“We are very encouraged to see some spectacular high grades in both silver and gold," Sunstone managing director Patrick Duffy said.
“The widths, grades and very shallow nature of the gold-silver mineralisation all augur very well for a maiden resource and potential open pit mining scenarios that will complement the Bramaderos porphyry gold-copper-silver discoveries."
