The most recent set of drill results from
Maritime Resources’ past-producing Hammerdown gold project in Newfoundland suggests a new gold-silver discovery 150 metres east of the Hammerdown deposit. In addition, infill drilling at the Wisteria zone, along the southern edge of the deposit, returned broad gold intercepts.
Assays from the new discovery, along strike from Hammerdown, include 6 metres of 6.9 g/t gold and 12.9 g/t silver starting at 143 metres, with a 2-metre interval of 19.9 g/t gold and 24.1 g/t silver. The mineralization appears similar to the Hammerdown veins and suggests resource expansion potential both along strike and at depth. Follow-up drilling is planned for the first quarter of this year.
