GEORGETOWN, Guyana--Gran Colombia Gold Corporation has announced results from the recently completed Phase 2 diamond drill programme at its 100 per cent-owned Toroparu Project in Western Guyana. The 10,494-metre (m) Phase 2 programme was designed to confirm the continuity of both the north-west-oriented high-grade gold structures and the cross-cutting east-west high-grade structures that create a repeatable pattern of intersecting zones amenable to underground mining methods over the four-kilometre (km) strike length of the Toroparu Project.
Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Gran Colombia, commented, “The discovery of the structural control of high-grade gold [element symbol Au – Ed.] mineralisation at Toroparu has reaffirmed our confidence in the potential value of this project as one of our cornerstone assets. The recently completed, two-phase diamond drill programme comprised a total of 20,750m in 114 drill holes and has confirmed a 4km strike length of high-grade structurally controlled gold mineralisation at Toroparu.
