Independence Gold Corp. Nov. 18 reported results from an eight-hole (1,093 meters) reverse circulation drill program at the Sunrise zone of its Boulevard gold project located about 135 kilometers (85 miles) south of Dawson City, Yukon.
The best intercepts were 3.05 meters of 15 g/t gold from a depth of 24.4 meters in hole BV15-40; and 22.9 meters of 0.94 g/t gold from a depth of 45.7 meters in hole BV15-35.
The fall 2015 RC drill program was designed to extend gold mineralization at the Sunrise zone, a 2,200-meter-long gold-in-soil anomaly located nine kilometers (5.6 miles) southwest of Kaminak Gold Corp.'s Coffee deposit.
BV15-31, the discovery hole at Sunrise, cut 7.23 g/t gold across 12.2 meters during the summer 2015 drill program.
The fall program tested one of several northeast-trending multi-element soil geochemical anomalies coincident with magnetic low features.
Independence Gold said further drilling is required to better understand the character and orientation of multiple mineralized structures identified at Sunrise.
The company said the Denali zone, located 13 kilometers (eight miles) northwest of Sunrise, is a high-priority drill target.
One hole drilled at Denali during the summer 2015 program cut 4.25 g/t gold over 6.1 meters.
