Snowline Gold (TSXV: SGD) has launched its 2025 exploration program at the flagship Rogue and surrounding projects in the Yukon. The program collectively is expected to see 30,000 metres of drilling conducted across all properties.
The drill program is said to have been broken into several sections, with a total of five drill rigs expected to conduct the exploration. The bulk of drilling, 20,000 metres, will be allocated to the Valley deposit at Rogue. Drilling here will see 15,000 metres allocated to exploration drilling in an attempt to expand the footprint of the current resource, while also working to upgrade the resource. A further 5,000 metres will be focused on geotechnical, condemnation and sonic drilling for the purpose of engineering studies.
Work at Valley this year will also see Snowline work to optimize processing methods and identify future infrastructure locations, assess surface and groundwater hydrology, and advance environmental baseline studies.
The remaining 10,000 metres of drilling meanwhile will be focused on regional targets at Rogue, as well as at Cynthia and Einarson. The company is focused on identifying reduced-intrusion related gold systems, with drill testing to include follow up drilling on the Gracie, which is a RIRGS found 4 kilometres to the north of Valley.
A 2,500 kilometre airborne magnetic surface is also to be conducted, in combination with surface mapping, geochem sampling, and delineation work that is to be conducted across the portfolio.
“While the Valley gold deposit remains open to further expansion, the scale and the quality of the near-surface resource discovered to date make rapid advancement of the current resource a key value driver for Snowline. We are fortunate to own such an asset,” commented Scott Berdahl, CEO of Snowline.
Snowline Gold last traded at $7.02 on the TSX Venture.
