Sassy Resources (CSE:SASY, OTCQB:SSYRF) Corporation announced that it has “significantly” expanded the Westmore gold-silver discovery at depth and along strike with the “highest grades yet” from drilling at its 100%-owned Foremore project in British Columbia's Eskay Camp, which included 86.4 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 41.6 g/t silver over 0.7 metres (m).
The company said four of the last five holes returned visible gold and confirmed the continuation to depth of high-grade gold mineralization defined by 2020 surface sampling.
“What's so encouraging about Westmore is that this is a completely new grassroots discovery with a large surface footprint and improving early-stage drill results,” Sassy Resources (CSE:SASY, OTCQB:SSYRF) CEO Mark Scott said in a statement.

“As we ramp up drilling and tighten up drill spacing, the expectation is for even better results. We also look forward to providing an update soon on the highly prospective More Creek Corridor where we're targeting gold-silver-rich VMS (volcanogenic massive sulphide)-style deposits,” Scott added.
Sassy noted that 18 drill holes, or 4,168m, have been completed to date at Westmore, which confirmed the discovery of a structurally controlled gold-silver-rich system with a large surface footprint covering the Westmore granodiorite intrusive and surrounding country rock.
