New results from this area between two deposits show greater widths and consistent grades when compared to previously reported intercepts from there, noted a National Bank of Canada report.
New drill results from this Idaho project also showed there is at-surface mineralization of higher grades than the average of the current resource, noted a Desjardins report.
Drill results from Liberty Gold Corp.’s flagship Black Pine project in Idaho show that the site’s largest areas of concentrated gold are connected.
This means the pads could be leached again, and cyanide solubility test results indicate the process could be done economically, noted a PI Financial report.
"The system appears to have a life upon itself, extending beyond the drill bit on several zones and leading outside the boundary of the exploration license," noted a Haywood Securities report.
Liberty Gold Corp. reported it has obtained water rights at the Black Pine area, which is more than sufficient to meet the requirement of its 70,000 tpd open pit, heap leach mining operation. Haywood Capital Markets commented in a research note that Liberty recently acquired two key connecting parcels which further de-risks the company.
"Today's results from Liberty Gold show the growth potential inherent in the providence of the gold mineralized system on the project area," noted a Haywood Securities report.
