The Crown
Deposits:
Finding More Gold With The Drill Bit Right
Now
Most junior gold companies would love to have one gold deposit
in Nevada. Northern Empire already has three on the north end
of its Sterling project alone.
Jump up to the north side of the Sterling project and you’ll
find the Daisy, Secret Pass and SNA deposits. It is here that
Northern Empire is aggressively drilling and hitting strong
results.
At Daisy, they’ve hit:
• 123.94 meters of 1.41 g/t gold...
• 108.20 meters of 0.80 g/t gold...
• 47.24 meters of 1.47 g/t gold...
And more — all near-surface and heap-leachable.
At Secret Pass, they’ve gotten:
• 82.30 meters at 1.25 g/t gold…
• 70.07 meters at 1.79 g/t gold...
• 56.4 meters at 3.13 g/t gold...
Again, these are near-surface, oxide zones — perfect for
Nevada.
Before this year’s drilling began to expand the resources, the
three deposits already boasted NI 43-101 inferred resources of
693,000 oz gold grading 1.09 g/t.
Daisy and Secret Pass were previously in heap-leach production,
until 2001 when gold plunged below $300/oz, and have not been
explored since that time. The company knows this mineralization can
be recovered using low-cost heap leaching.
And the environment is certainly conducive for finding more
gold. The mineralization in these three deposits lies along eight
kilometers of east-west trending fault structures, all controlled
by Northern Empire.
Interestingly, this same “detachment” fault hosts Barrick Gold’s
Bullfrog Mine, which produced 2.3 million ounces of gold just five
kilometers to the west. The potential here is very, very high, and
demands significantly more drilling.
That drilling is planned throughout 2018.
And get this: One of the big success stories in recent months
has been the great drill results that Corvus Gold is getting from
its Mother Lode project.
But Northern Empire’s Crown deposits completely
surround Corvus Gold’s Mother Lode project.
Moreover, recent drilling has confirmed that the Mother Lode
mineralization extends onto Northern Empire’s own property. With
new drill results being released on a regular basis, this is a very
exciting time for Northern Empire and its shareholders.
