Scorpio Gold Reports Results From 2015 Expansion Drilling at the Brodie Satellite Deposit, Mineral Ridge Project

21.09.2015  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sep 21, 2015) - Scorpio Gold Corp. ("Scorpio Gold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SGN) reports additional results from the 2015 expansion drilling in the Brodie deposit target area at its70% owned Mineral Ridge project, located in Nevada.

The 2015 expansion program at Mineral Ridge includes infill, development and exploration drilling to expand and upgrade the current mineral reserve and resource base and potentially extend life of mine.

Twelve of the 15 holes presented in Table 1 were drilled within or adjacent to the 2014 floated cone pit outlines for the Brodie deposit. Two holes, MR151656 and 660 were collared 150 meters west of the pit outlines in the vicinity of a mag tilt high, where previous drilling intersected significant grades at approximately 60 meters vertical depth. MR151670 was an exploration hole collared approximately 150 west of the Brodie deposit Management believes that results received from the expansion drilling program should positively impact the existing resource base at the Brodie deposit.

Highlights from this phase of expansion drilling on the Brodie deposit include:

  • MR151621: 3.61 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold over 1.52 meters
  • MR151629: 5.86 g/t gold over 1.52 meters
  • MR151630: 1.59 g/t gold over 3.05 meters
  • MR151654: 1.36 g/t gold over 7.62 meters
  • MR151655: 4.09 g/t gold over 4. 57 meters
  • MR151657: 2.51 g/t gold over 4. 57 meters
  • MR151658: 12.55 g/t gold over 3.05 meters
