NxGold Achieves Important Permitting Milestone for Summer 2017 Exploration at Kuulu

19.06.2017  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, June 19, 2017 /CNW/ - NXGOLD LTD. ("NxGold" or the "Company"), (NXN:TSXV) is pleased to announce that it has received a positive screening decision from the Nunavut Impact Review Board ("NIRB") for its maiden exploration program at the Kuulu Gold Project, Nunavut.  The decision by the NIRB, which follows a comprehensive review, means that processing of the additional licence applications for a camp based, multi-phase exploration program may now proceed.

A detailed helicopter-borne VTEM Plus (electromagnetic and magnetic) survey will be initiated as soon as possible out of Rankin Inlet which is located approximately 40km southeast of the Kuulu property.  This survey is anticipated to be completed in early July and has as its objective the identification of a number of high priority exploration drill targets.  Following completion of this survey, and upon receipt of additional required licences, the field-based portion of the planned drill campaign is expected to commence in early August 2017.

Christopher McFadden, CEO stated, "We are very encouraged by the NIRB's positive screening decision.  Since initiating the permitting process, we have worked diligently to engage with the community of Rankin Inlet and the various agencies and organizations involved in the assessment and monitoring of the Kuulu Gold Project.  In the process, we have gained an appreciation for the concerns and values of the people of the Kivalliq region of Nunavut.  We now look forward to exploring the Kuulu project which will represent the first systematic drill campaign initiated in the property's history."

As set out in the news release dated April 26, 2017, the maiden exploration campaign will consist of:

  • A VTEM Plus (electromagnetic and magnetic) survey on 50 m spaced lines over the entire property which will be flown by Geotech Ltd.;
  • A low altitude high resolution drone survey at 25 m spacing over the entire property;
  • Systematic till sampling and boulder prospecting, and
  • A minimum 4,000 m (30 hole) diamond drill program.
