Geochemical Survey Complete
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 8, 2020 / Golden Lake Exploration Inc. (CSE:GLM) (“GLM” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that Alford Drilling, LLC, of Spring Creek, NV 89815 has been retained to complete a minimum 5,000 foot, RC (reverse circulation) drill program on the company’s keystone Jewel Ridge gold property, located near the town of Eureka, Nevada. The drill will be mobilized as soon as possible by the contractor with drilling set to commence this month.
“With gold hitting new highs and the market for juniors responding this is an exciting time for Golden Lake to commence drilling its growing selection of gold targets on Jewel Ridge in Nevada.” stated Mike England, CEO and President of Golden Lake.
This is the maiden drill program by the Company on the Jewel Ridge property, with targets located on patented mineral claims on the South Eureka and Hamburg zones, both targeting Carlin-type, oxide gold mineralization. Both the Company field contractors and the drill contractor will exercise COVID-19 operating protocols and safety measures as required.
The Company also wishes to report that the geochemical survey contracted to Rangefront Geological of Elko, Nevada (see press release June 18, 2020) has been completed, on time, and on budget, with all samples submitted to ALS labs in Sparks, Nevada, for multi-element analysis. As previously reported by the Company, two distinct types of mineralization occur on the Property: 1) carbonate replacement deposits of silver-gold- lead-zinc (Ag-Au-Pb-Zn) and 2) Carlin-style disseminated gold deposits. Each type of mineralization has a specific geochemical signature that will be useful to identify new drill targets.
About the Jewel Ridge Property
The Jewel Ridge property is located on the south end of Nevada’s prolific Battle Mountain – Eureka trend, along strike and contiguous to Barrick Gold’s Archimedes/Ruby Hill gold mine to the north and Timberline Resources’ advanced-stage Lookout Mountain project to the south.
The property comprises 96 unpatented lode mining claims and 30 patented claims covering approximately 728 hectares (1,800 acres). The Jewel Ridge property contains several historic small gold mines. The Company’s focus is on Carlin-style disseminated gold deposits, the primary focus in the area since the late 1970s.
Nevada Carlin-type gold deposits (CTGD) have a combined endowment of more than 250 million ounces, which are concentrated (85 per cent) in only four trends or camps of deposits: Carlin, Cortez (Battle Mountain-Eureka), Getchell and Jerritt Canyon. The Company cautions that results on adjacent and/or nearby projects are not necessarily indicative of results on the Company’s property.
