VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 13, 2024 / Lincoln Gold Mining Inc. (TSXV:LMG) ("Lincoln Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of core sample analysis from its 2021 drilling program on the Wilson deposit, at the Pine Grove Project in Lyon County, Nevada. This analysis represents an important step in Lincoln Gold's strategy to expand resources and evaluate the potential for further development at the property.
The Pine Grove Project has already undergone extensive exploration, featuring 275 drill holes and a comprehensive NI 43-101 report filed on SEDAR on February 16, 2015, and available on the Company's website. The project is nearing the final stages of permitting, with full approval anticipated within the next 12 to 16 months. Currently, Pine Grove boasts measured and indicated resources equivalent to 210,962 ounces of gold, with one of Nevada's highest reserve gold grades at 1.23 g/t. Approximately 25% of the property has been explored, leaving significant potential for resource expansion.
The 2021 drilling program focused on the Wilson Deposit, where five core holes provided valuable data on rock structure, lithology, and mineralization, including quartz-sulfide veining with trace copper within established ore zones. These insights are vital for guiding future exploration and resource expansion efforts. Due to the challenges posed by COVID-19 and the need to prioritize our limited funds at the time, the Company was unable to complete the full analyses of the core until now.
A key driver of this important next step is Mr. Reid Yano, an accomplished geologist with a wealth of experience in both industry and government projects. As a respected member of the Geological Society of Nevada and the Society of Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration, Mr. Yano's deep understanding of the region's geology will be invaluable in interpreting the core sample analysis and guiding the subsequent exploration and resource development.
The Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for Pine Grove highlights substantial exploration potential beyond the current resource base, recommending infill and offset drilling at the Wilson Deposit, deep drilling at the Wheeler Deposit, and expanded exploration across other promising areas. Ten new drill targets have already been identified, underscoring the project's considerable growth potential.
"We're excited to advance our work at Pine Grove, a project with significant upside," said Mr. Paul Saxton, President and CEO of Lincoln Gold. "The core sample analysis and subsequent exploration efforts are crucial to unlocking the full potential of this high-grade gold project. With our strategic approach and the expertise, we've brought on board, including Mr. Yano, we are well-positioned to drive this project forward."
Lincoln Gold remains committed to advancing the Pine Grove Project responsibly and efficiently, with a focus on delivering value to its shareholders. The Company will continue to provide updates as the analysis and exploration programs progress.
