NuLegacy Gold (CVE:NUG)
NuLegacy (NUG CN) has announced that it has staked additional acreage contiguous to its Red Hill property in Nevada. The additional 64 claims cover 5.1km2 taking the total land package to 108km2. It is a rare opportunity that such claims become available and it strengthens NUG’s position in close proximity to the south of Barrick’s (ABX US) Goldrush deposit (10mnoz).
Within the Red Hill license area NUG has identified both Carlin style gold and epithermal gold-silver mineralisation and this new area which covers the Coal Canyon window is also prospective for both types of mineralisation. The Coal Canyon area is host to the carbonate sedimentary rocks strongly associated with the major gold formations in the region; Horse Canyon, Wenban, Roberts Mountains and Hanson Creek Formations. This additional acreage therefore strongly ties in with the existing land package strengthening the company’s exploration position in the region.
