Nexgold Commences Next Phase Of Diamond Drilling At The Goliath Gold Complex

“As we advance the Feasibility Study, engage with First Nations and move forward with permitting activities at Goliath, we have also prioritized Mineral Resource expansion and identification of new gold discoveries in underexplored areas across the 330 km² property package. The goal of the exploration program is to demonstrate the potential scale and size of the district within 65 kilometres of strike potential. Phase 2 of the exploration program will focus on near-pit Mineral Resource expansion at Goliath as well as on discovery immediately along strike of the Goldlund Deposit. While we continue to drill, we will also pursue further discoveries by advancing other mineral prospects. As we advance two near-term gold development projects at Goliath in Ontario and the Goldboro Gold Project in Nova Scotia, we do so with an eye on creating significant near-term and long-term value for all shareholders, Rightsholders and stakeholders.”
