Generation Mining Ltd. (GENM:TSX; GENMF:OTCQB; 9GN:FSE) launched an 8,000 meter (8,000m) winter exploration drill program at its Marathon palladium-copper project in Ontario, it announced in a news release. Boart Longyear Canada, which the developer contracted to carry out the work, started the first hole, testing the Central Feeder zone target.
The first of the two planned phases will follow up summer 2020 drill results and comprise three components. One is 3,000m of drilling in the Central Feeder zone, where previous drilling returned palladium, platinum and copper mineralization.
The second is drill testing two other areas, including the Chonolith zone north of the Main zone. Historical drilling in Chonolith, in 2006, showed potential for wide zones of palladium and copper mineralization.
The third is drilling three holes in the westerly downdip extension of Marathon's Southern W horizon, defined by a set of 20-plus drill holes. Previous drill results returned gold, platinum, palladium and copper values.
"All three areas have the potential to host ramp-accessible resources immediately adjacent to the Marathon deposit," CEO Jamie Levy said in the release.
