Assay TV welcomes Alex Scanlon, managing director and CEO of South-Australia-based explorer Barton Gold (ASX: BGD). The company is focused on exploring two large-scale mineral systems: the Tarcoola Project and the Tunkillia Project, both located in the state’s Gawler Craton region.
Alex discusses Barton Gold’s phase three drilling campaign at Tarcoola, as the company seeks to following up on last year’s drilling success at the Perseverance West target, where results include 5m @48.9 g/t Au from 115-120m. He goes through plans for drilling for the rest of the year, and talks about how the company aims to providing a significant resource update by the end of the year.
Alex also goes into how Barton Gold has been building up its South-Australian based leadership team, as well as an in-house geology and project management team. Finally, we hear about how the current drilling campaign is being funded, and why the company is in a good financial position for more exploration.
