Klondike Gold Commences 2025 Exploration and Drilling
14:30 Uhr | ACCESS Newswire
VANCOUVER, April 24, 2025 - Klondike Gold Corp. (TSXV:KG)(FRA:LBDP)(OTCQB:KDKGF) ("Klondike Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report the commencement of 2025 exploration and drilling on the Company's 100% owned a Klondike District Property (the "Property") spanning 727 square kilometer bedrock gold of advanced exploration (see Figure 1).
Peter Tallman, President and CEO of Klondike states "2025 drilling is anticipated to commence on or before April 28 which begins a multiphase campaign to expand the extents of gold mineralization in the Eldorado Creek corridor. The overall drill plan will target significant lateral and deep vertical extensions to high grade gold vein zones and includes provision for the first time to drill up to 750m hole length to test for significant extension of mineralization to depth".
The 2025 drilling program is based around positive new insights stemming from recent evaluation work which have significantly updated our gold mineralization models. The Klondike exploration team have recast and remapped outdated geology units in use since the 1980's, compiled and mapped multiple individual thrust planes within the composite Eldorado Fault thrust zone. In addition, using measurements from oriented drill core and new surface structural mapping have constructed 3-D structural, vein, and gold mineralization models along the 'Eldorado Creek corridor'.
Importantly the Company has documented high grade orogenic style gold veining (>30 g/t Au) outcropping within 500 meters of vertical elevation from the level of Eldorado Creek at the bottom to the tops of hills above. Our new 3-D mineralization/structural models consistently link many 'Undrilled Au Showings' (see Figure 2) together along multiple parallel, stacked mineralized faults.
These lengthy linear zones containing gold-bearing mineralization will be the focus of 2025 exploration drilling with the goal to outline a substantial area of gold mineralization extending to depth from our existing at-surface mineral resource estimate1 containing 581k oz Au calculated at $1700 USD gold price.
