Drilling Commences At The Lewis Gold Project


VANCOUVER - Nevada King Gold Corp. has commenced a 3,500 meter, reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at its 5,500 hectare, 100% owned Lewis Gold Project located approximately 21km south of Battle Mountain.

Cal Herron, Exploration Manager, said, "I have always viewed Lewis as one of our most exciting projects. It is a large epithermal gold system located along the axis of the Battle Mountain Gold Trend and surrounded by several of Nevada's most prominent gold mines. Historical exploration was hampered to varying degrees by fragmented claim/land ownership, but historical drilling dating back to the 1980s cumulatively outlined a large, mineralized gold footprint that now demands modern exploration. I am excited that Nevada King has managed to assemble a significant gold district in one cohesive package in the heart of Nevada's gold country. Given the project's location, Nevada King stands a good chance of expanding upon the historical gold resources at Celestine O'Neal and Rocky Canyon. If successful at confirming historical drill results, this maiden 2021 drilling program will catalyze  a more robust exploration program in 2022."
