New Age Metals Commences Drilling at River Valley PGM Project Near Sudbury
![New Age Metals Commences Drilling at River Valley PGM Project Near Sudbury](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
The purpose of the drill program is to test three Pine Zone target types: 1) induced polarization (IP) chargeability highs from the 2017 geophysical survey for extensions of the Pine Zone or new discoveries in the footwall to Dana North; 2) potential extensions of higher-grade trends external to the current mineral resources in the Pine Zone; and 3) whether and how the Pine Zone may be connected to the Dana North Zone at depth. The connection of the two zones is currently modelled, based on the available drilling, as a major SSE-plunging fold. The drilling will test for evidence of such folding, including the potential presence of thickened and higher-grade PGM sulphide mineralization within the fold nose. See Figure 1 below for the planned drill hole locations in the upcoming phase one program.

Since the two discovery holes in 2015, 19 more holes have been drilled into the Pine Zone. All the holes except one intersected the zone. Examples of some of the better intersections are: 4.03 g/t Pd+Pt+Au over 9m from 145m in hole 2015-DN002 and 3.22 g/t Pd+Pt+Au over 4m from 202 m in hole 2016-DN-T2-10. More details can be found in the various press releases on the New Age Metals website. The Pine Zone remains open along strike and at depth with an interpreted SSE dip/plunge direction.
