Orford Mining Corp. Announces Commencement of Exploration Program on the Carolina Gold Properties

28.11.2017  |  CNW
TORONTO, Nov. 28, 2017 - Orford Mining Corporation ("Orford") (TSX-V: ORM) is pleased to announce that the 2017 field program has commenced at its Carolina Gold Properties in North and South Carolina. The program will be carried out in two phases: a first phase of relogging of historical core, surface mapping, trenching, and geophysics, and a second phase of drilling.

David Christie, President and CEO of Orford, commented, "We look forward to these initial exploration activities on Orford's very prospective properties in the re-emerging U.S. Carolina Gold Belt."

Orford is party to an option agreement with Carolina Gold Resources Inc. to earn a 70% interest in the Jones-Keystone and Landrum-Faulkner Properties located, respectively, in North Carolina and South Carolina. The properties are located in the Carolina Gold Belt, home to Oceana Gold's producing Haile Mine (3.7 Moz resource at 1.8 g/t Au1) and the past-producing Ridgeway Mine.

The Jones-Keystone and Landrum-Faulkner Properties occur at or near the same regional geological contact as the Haile and Ridgeway mines. At Jones-Keystone, mineralization is exposed at surface and historical drilling has yielded multiple drill hole intercepts in the 1 to 3 g/t range, including an interval of 1.56 g/t Au over 54m core length (which includes 3.01 g/t Au over 28m core length) in historical hole JK10-006, and an interval of 1.27 g/t Au over 104m core length (which includes 3.03 g/t Au over 14m core length) in historical hole JK11-0172,3.
