Drill Program At The Champagne Gold Project
TORONTO - Idaho Champion Gold Mines Canada Inc. has commenced the planned drill program to test the large geophysical anomaly reported earlier this year at its 100% controlled Champagne Gold Project near the city of Arco, Butte County, Idaho. The Company recently announced that it has signed a contract with National Drilling for an 8,000 meter exploration core drilling program (See press release dated June 8, 2021). The drill and crew have mobilized to site and drilling is underway on the first hole. The drill program is designed to test the large induced polarization (IP) anomaly with a series of drill holes comprising “fences” along IP Lines 4 and 5. The first two (2) drill holes will be placed on the recently acquired private ground located toward the west end of the IP anomaly.
“Commencing this drill program marks an exciting step for Idaho Champion as we begin fence drilling the IP anomaly. Given the evidence uncovered so far on this huge anomaly, we have high expectations of encountering mineralization as we test the roots of the Champagne mineral system. It is helpful that we are able to drill immediately on our recently acquired private ground,” said, President and CEO, Jonathan Buick.
