Grizzly Discoveries Reviews Greenwood Cobalt Potential and Closes Private Placement
![Grizzly Discoveries Reviews Greenwood Cobalt Potential and Closes Private Placement](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
A preliminary review of the sample database indicates that many of the rock samples with anomalous Co also contain anomalous values for copper (Cu) and precious metals including gold (Au) and silver (Ag). In many cases, the samples with anomalous Co were collected from Cu-enriched skarn and hornfels developed in Paleozoic sediments and intrusions, where the original sampling targeted precious metals. Grizzly has initiated a property wide review, including its extensive soil and drillhole database along with much of the historic data for the district that it has compiled over the years. The goal will be to target potential Co-Cu-Au-Ag mineralization associated with skarn across the district and come up with targets for follow-up exploration during 2018.
As disclosed in the Company's October 2nd, 2017 news release, Kinross Gold Corp.'s wholly owned subsidiary, KG Exploration (Canada) Inc. ("Kinross") has notified Grizzly that it has completed its 2017 work program, including drilling, and that it is currently preparing a report and finalizing plans for additional work in 2018. Kinross expects to complete its assessment report and filing in early 2018. A summary of results from the 2017 program will be provided once received from Kinross. The following work was completed in 2017:
- 1,129 metres diamond drilling at Mt Attwood-Overlander and Midway areas
- Generative work of mapping and sampling of high priority targets
- Cumulative expenditure total US $761,520
Kinross has met its second anniversary obligations pursuant to the September 23, 2015 Greenwood option agreement.
