High-Grade Gold Intercepts at Depth
New surface exploration drilling at the Cariboo Gold Project intercepted high-grade gold mineralization, including 13.19 g/t Au over 3.60m at 596m vertical depth and 28.90 g/t Au over 0.50m at 718m vertical depth. Approximately 65% of the 8,971m drilled transected areas outside the current deposit footprint.
