Falcon Gold Corp (TSXV: FG) announced this morning that it has recently secured a diamond drill contractor for the first phase of exploration in 2020. The drill program will see 1,000 meters of drilling occur at the firms Central Canada mineralized structure.

Initial drilling that occurred on the property by Terra-X Minerals in 2012 resulted in surface samples returning values of up to 39.6 grams per tonne of gold. Subsequent drilling conducted by the firm revealed gold mineralization values intersecting 10.61m @ 1.32 g/t gold. More recent drilling conducted by Interquest Resource Corp had mineralization intersecting over 1 meter @ approximately 30 g/t gold in diamond drill core and 23.3 meters @ 0.83 g/t gold.

The Sepawa Gold Mine represents the closest nearby deposit to Falcon’s current property.

The mine had an unclassified resource of 528,614 tonnes at 0.31 oz/t gold as per Sepawa.
