Fremont Defines Drill Targets at Urasar Copper-Gold Project in Armenia; Commences Drill Program
Fremont Gold (TSXV: FRE) (OTCQB: FRERF) has commenced its maiden 1,600m drill program at the Urasar Copper-Gold Project in Armenia. The program, expected to be completed within 8 weeks, targets nine priority drill sites identified at the Copper Creek, Black River, and Brick House prospects. Fremont has contracted AT Group, a Yerevan-based drilling company, using an Atlas Copco CS14 drill rig capable of reaching depths up to 1,200 meters.
CEO Joel Sutherland expressed optimism about the program's potential to demonstrate that surface mineralization continues at depth. He believes Urasar could develop into a district-scale series of mineralized systems, with the possibility of discovering one or more tier-one epithermal gold and/or copper porphyry deposits. The company expects additional priority targets to emerge as results from recently-collected geochemical surface samples are processed.
Fremont Gold (TSXV: FRE) (OTCQB: FRERF) ha iniziato il suo primo programma di perforazione di 1.600 m presso il Progetto Rame-Oro Urasar in Armenia. Si prevede che il programma, che si completerà entro 8 settimane, miri a nove siti di perforazione prioritari identificati nei progetti Copper Creek, Black River e Brick House. Fremont ha contratto AT Group, un'azienda di perforazione con sede a Yerevan, utilizzando un impianto di perforazione Atlas Copco CS14 capace di raggiungere profondità fino a 1.200 metri.
Il CEO Joel Sutherland ha espresso ottimismo riguardo al potenziale del programma di dimostrare che la mineralizzazione superficiale continua in profondità. Crede che Urasar possa svilupparsi in una serie di sistemi mineralizzati su scala distrettuale, con la possibilità di scoprire uno o più depositi di oro e/o rame porfirico di livello uno. L’azienda si aspetta che emergano ulteriori obiettivi prioritari man mano che i risultati dei campioni geochimici superficiali recentemente raccolti vengono elaborati.

Fremont Gold (TSXV: FRE) (OTCQB: FRERF) hat sein erstes Bohrprogramm über 1.600 m gestartet im Urasar Kupfer-Gold-Projekt in Armenien. Das Programm soll innerhalb von 8 Wochen abgeschlossen sein und zielt auf neun priorisierte Bohrstandorte, die an den Projekten Copper Creek, Black River und Brick House identifiziert wurden. Fremont hat die AT Group, ein in Jerewan ansässiges Bohrunternehmen, beauftragt und nutzt eine Atlas Copco CS14 Bohranlage, die Tiefen von bis zu 1.200 Metern erreichen kann.
CEO Joel Sutherland äußerte Optimismus über das Potenzial des Programms, um zu zeigen, dass die oberflächennahe Mineralisierung in die Tiefe fortsetzt. Er glaubt, dass Urasar sich zu einer bezirklichen Reihe mineralisierter Systeme entwickeln könnte, mit der Möglichkeit, einen oder mehrere erstklassige epithermale Gold- und/oder Kupferporphyrvorkommen zu entdecken. Das Unternehmen erwartet, dass sich weitere priorisierte Ziele ergeben, wenn die Ergebnisse der kürzlich gesammelten geochemischen Oberflächenproben verarbeitet werden.

Fremont has contracted AT Group, a drilling company based in Yerevan, Armenia which has worked with the Company in the past. The program will utilize an Atlas Copco CS14 drill rig, which is capable of drilling to a depth of up to 1,200 meters. The rig was successfully mobilized to site and began drilling operations this past weekend.
This drill program represents a materially significant phase of exploration for Fremont as it seeks to reveal the mineral potential of the Urasar project.

CEO comments
CEO Joel Sutherland states, "Fremont's investors are anticipating a successful Urasar drill program that demonstrates the mineralization seen on surface continues to depth. We believe that the District comprises a series of mineralized bodies along a major east-west trending crustal-scale lineament. The detailed geological and geophysical work undertaken earlier this season have enabled us to define numerous first-order drill targets as well as a score of secondary drill targets beyond the nine selected to date. We believe Urasar has the potential to develop into a district-scale series of mineralized systems, with the goal of discovering one or more tier-one epithermal gold and/or copper porphyry deposits."
About Fremont Gold
The Company's mine-finding management team has a track record of creating shareholder value. Current exploration efforts are centered on two key properties: Urasar and Vardenis, both of which have shown encouraging results and significant potential for tier one mineral discoveries in the Central Tethyan Mineral Belt in Armenia. The Tethyan Belt is one of the world's most prolific gold, copper and polymetallic mineral belts, yet the Armenian portion of the belt is vastly underexplored.
