Puma Exploration Inc. (TSXV: PUMA | OTCQB: PUMXF) has commenced its 2024 drilling programme at its 100% owned Williams Brook Gold Project located in Northern New Brunswick. The 2024 programme includes an initial 2,000m of diamond drilling at the Tiger Gold Zone, a prospective new gold area discovered last year through the application of the company’s successful discovery model.
“We are very excited to launch our 2024 exploration programme and begin drilling at Tiger. In 2023, we identified several high-grade gold targets along the northeast extension of the Lynx Gold Trend, and we expect drilling results to mirror what we’ve seen at Lynx.” Stated Marcel Robillard President and CEO of Puma.
The inaugural drilling programme at Tiger will begin in early March and aims to grow the volume, scale and gold grade of the Williams Brook Gold Project. Drilling will target the 1.5km northeast strike extension of the Lynx Gold Zone to prove the continuity of the high-grade gold mineralization along the Lynx Gold trend.
We’ve always said that Williams Brook hosts a very large system. Confirming, by drilling, the continuity of mineralization along a possible 4km extension will be a huge step toward demonstrating the potential of the Williams Brook Gold Project. With our low-cost exploration model, we are committed to continuing to demonstrate scale, volume, and grade in 2024 despite challenging market conditions.” Added Marcel.
The planned shallow drilling will test gold mineralization below the gold veins identified by trenching and mapping last year at the Tiger Gold Zone. Drilling will also follow a fan pattern to understand what controls gold mineralization at the TGZ and how this zone fits within the 4km long gold corridor.
