TORONTO, March 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stone Gold Inc. (TSX-V: STG) ("Stone Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report that drilling is underway at the Company’s Mt. Jamie North Gold Property, located in the western extension of the prolific Red Lake Gold Camp (the “Region”) in Ontario, Canada.
This initial drill program is designed for a minimum of 900 metres of NQ diamond drilling that will test the gold mineralization potential of three targets. These targets occur in a structural-mineralization corridor within volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Balmer Assemblage, key ingredients for the Region’s gold deposits. The Mt. Jamie North Property is 200 metres from the former Mt. Jamie Mine Number 2 shaft. Trillium Gold Mines and Western Red Lake Gold are both actively exploring the Newman Todd zone south of the Western Red Lake Rowan Mine 1 million oz. Au. deposit.
Stone Gold President and CEO John Timmons comments “We are excited to finally have drills turning on the untested Mt. Jamie North Property located in Red Lake. We hope to benefit from the ongoing interest in Red Lake by establishing gold mineralization along the western trend of the Red Lake mining district. The recently announced acquisition of Battle North Gold Corporation confirms our belief in the prospectivity of this Region.”
