2,200m Follow-up Drilling Complete at Tolmer Au-Ag Discovery
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF) has completed 2,230 meters of RC drilling across 17 holes at the Tolmer prospect within its Tarcoola Gold Project in South Australia. The drilling campaign follows significant gold and silver discoveries from May-July 2024, which yielded impressive results of 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au and 82.8 g/t Ag from 95m depth, including 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au and 312 g/t Ag from 97m.
The recent drilling program targeted potential extensions of higher-grade quartz sulphide veining and areas below previous November 2024 aircore drilling that encountered gold but couldn't penetrate the underlying harder quartzite rock. Additionally, silver assays are pending for approximately 2,000m of aircore drilling conducted in November 2024.
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF) ha completato 2.230 metri di perforazioni RC su 17 fori presso il prospetto Tolmer all'interno del Tarcoola Gold Project in Australia Meridionale. La campagna di perforazione segue significative scoperte di oro e argento avvenute da maggio a luglio 2024, che hanno prodotto risultati impressionanti di 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au e 82.8 g/t Ag da una profondità di 95m, inclusi 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au e 312 g/t Ag da 97m.
Il recente programma di perforazione ha mirato a potenziali estensioni di vene di quarzo solforato di alta qualità e aree al di sotto delle precedenti perforazioni aircore di novembre 2024 che hanno trovato oro ma non sono riuscite a penetrare la roccia quarzosa sottostante. Inoltre, i risultati delle analisi dell'argento sono in attesa per circa 2.000m di perforazione aircore effettuata a novembre 2024.
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF) ha completado 2,230 metros de perforación RC a través de 17 agujeros en el prospecto Tolmer dentro de su Proyecto de Oro Tarcoola en Australia del Sur. La campaña de perforación sigue a importantes descubrimientos de oro y plata de mayo a julio de 2024, que arrojaron resultados impresionantes de 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au y 82.8 g/t Ag a partir de 95m de profundidad, incluyendo 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au y 312 g/t Ag a partir de 97m.
El reciente programa de perforación tuvo como objetivo extensiones potenciales de vetas de cuarzo sulfuros de mayor grado y áreas por debajo de las perforaciones aircore de noviembre de 2024 que encontraron oro pero no pudieron penetrar la roca cuarcita subyacente más dura. Además, los análisis de plata están pendientes para aproximadamente 2,000m de perforaciones aircore realizadas en noviembre de 2024.
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF)는 남호주 Tarcoola Gold Project 내 Tolmer prospect에서 17개 구멍을 통해 2,230미터의 RC 드릴링을 완료했습니다. 이 드릴링 캠페인은 2024년 5월부터 7월까지의 중요한 금 및 은 발견 이후에 이루어졌으며, 95m 깊이에서 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au 및 82.8 g/t Ag의 인상적인 결과를 얻었습니다. 이에는 97m에서 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au 및 312 g/t Ag도 포함됩니다.
최근 드릴링 프로그램은 고등급 석영 황화 광맥의 잠재적 연장과 2024년 11월의 공기 코어 드릴링에서 발견된 금 아래의 지역을 목표로 했습니다. 그러나 이 드릴링은 아래의 단단한 석영암을 관통할 수 없었습니다. 또한, 2024년 11월에 수행된 약 2,000m의 공기 코어 드릴링에 대한 은 분석 결과는 대기 중입니다.
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF) a complété 2 230 mètres de forage RC à travers 17 trous sur le projet Tolmer, dans le cadre de son Projet d'Or de Tarcoola en Australie-Méridionale. La campagne de forage fait suite à d'importantes découvertes d'or et d'argent entre mai et juillet 2024, dont les résultats impressionnants incluent 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au et 82.8 g/t Ag à 95m de profondeur, y compris 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au et 312 g/t Ag à 97m.
Le programme de forage récent a visé des extensions potentielles de veines de quartz sulfureux de haute qualité et des zones situées sous les précédents forages aircore de novembre 2024, qui avaient rencontré de l'or mais n'avaient pas pu pénétrer à travers la roche quartzite plus dure en dessous. De plus, les analyses d'argent sont en attente pour environ 2 000 m de forage aircore effectué en novembre 2024.
Barton Gold Holdings (ASX:BGD, OTCQB:BGDFF) hat 2.230 Meter RC-Bohrungen in 17 Löchern im Tolmer-Projekt innerhalb seines Tarcoola-Goldprojekts in Südaustralien abgeschlossen. Die Bohrkampagne folgt auf bedeutende Gold- und Silberentdeckungen von Mai bis Juli 2024, die beeindruckende Ergebnisse von 4m @ 24.6 g/t Au und 82.8 g/t Ag in 95m Tiefe erbrachten, darunter 1m @ 83.6 g/t Au und 312 g/t Ag in 97m.
Das aktuelle Bohrprogramm zielte auf mögliche Erweiterungen von hochgradigen Quarzschwefeladern und Bereiche unterhalb der früheren Luftkernbohrungen im November 2024, die Gold trafen, jedoch das darunterliegende härtere Quarzit nicht durchdringen konnten. Darüber hinaus stehen die Silberanalysen für etwa 2.000m Luftkernbohrungen, die im November 2024 durchgeführt wurden, noch aus.
