Mineralization Confirmed in Pipe at Gold Project
Research Report

Source:

The presence of near-surface, high-grade gold mineralization in and around one of the breccia pipes at this property bodes well for the five others there, noted a Canaccord Genuity report.

Dakota Gold Corp. (DC:NYSE American) has more drill results in from its Richmond Hill project in South Dakota's Homestake District, and they "help underscore the prospective potential" there, Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Fairbairn reported in a Feb. 23 research note.

Also, Dakota Gold's current share price is US$2.86 per share, yet Canaccord's target price on it is much higher, at US$5 per share, noted Fairbairn. This price gap implies a significant potential return for investors. Dakota is a Speculative Buy.

Positive for Mineralization

Results of one of the four newly reported holes at Richmond Hill confirmed "the existence of near-surface, high-grade gold in/beside the breccia pipes," Fairbairn highlighted. Specifically, hole RH22C-012, drilled on the east side of the Twin Tunnels breccia pipe, demonstrated 39.8 meters (39.8m) of 2.55 grams per ton gold (2.55 g/t Au).

Further, the results suggest the other five known breccia pipes may also contain mineralization. Little exploration of these six pipes was conducted historically, and what was done was only down to a depth of about 122m. A single pipe, Richmond Hill, was mined in the past.

"Dakota Gold believes the potential to discover significant gold mineralization could be found at depth," wrote Fairbairn.

More Encouraging Drill Data

Two additional, just-reported holes drilled at the Twin Tunnels pipe encountered mineralization. They are:

  • RH22C-006: 19.8m of 0.92 g/t Au and 13.7m of 1.09 g/t Au
  • RH22C-009: 16.8m of 0.68 g/t Au and 23.4m of 0.77 g/t Au

The last of the quartet of holes is RH22C-007, which Dakota drilled in the Cole Creek pipe. It demonstrated 9.4m of 3.2 g/t Au and 14.9m of 1.39 g/t Au.

Overall, "these initial results show promise for what may eventually become a larger system defined on the property package, though it remains early days with more drill testing required," Fairbairn commented.

To that end, Dakota continues to "aggressively drill" not only at its Richmond Hill project but also at Maitland.
