Lahontan Mobilizes Drill Rig to Santa Fe

08.05.2023  |  Accesswire

TORONTO, May 8, 2023 - Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF) (the "Company" or "Lahontan") is pleased to announce that it has mobilized a Boart Longyear MPD-1500 track-mounted reverse-circulation ("RC") drill rig to its Flagship Santa Fe Mine, located in Nevada's Walker Lane, a Tier One mining jurisdiction. Drilling is expected to commence the week of May 8, 2023. The Company has permitted a drilling program consisting of up to 11,000 metres of RC drilling designed to expand upon the project's existing pit constrained gold and silver Resource (Indicated Mineral Resource of 1,112,000 oz Au Eq (grading 1.14 g/t Au Eq) and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 544,000 oz Au Eq (grading 1.00 g/t Au Eq), please see Santa Fe Project Technical Report*).

The initial phase of the 2023 drilling program will focus on Slab-Calvada Complex, with step-out drilling designed to expand upon the extensive oxide gold and silver Resources at Slab-Calvada (please see map below). Twenty RC drill holes are planned adjacent to the known gold and silver Resources, allowing the Company to tie-together the existing Resource pit shells, consolidating the individual Resources into a larger conceptual pit.

Kimberly Ann, Lahontan Gold Founder, CEO, President, and Director commented: "Lahontan is excited to embark on its 2023 drilling campaign. Our initial focus on the Slab-Calvada complex intends to build upon the tremendous success of our past drilling and grow oxide gold and silver resource ounces. We will fill-in between the individual gold and silver deposits at Slab-Calvada and also explore at depth where we still have not reached the bottom of oxide gold and silver mineralization".
