Metallurgical testwork on Idaho-Maryland ore achieved 98.7% gold recovery into concentrate averaging 117 gpt gold - a strong result that de-risks the eventual processing plan for the project, after several years without a story-bearing update.
New Idaho #1 Vein drilling confirmed mineralization 600m below the lowest historic mine level, extending the exploration target to 600m x 600m, while re-interpretation of an earlier hole opened an even larger target (1,000m x 1,400m) on the separate Idaho #2 Vein.
Drilling into the Idaho Vein hit exceptionally high grades - 90.4 gpt gold over 4.27m, including a 458 gpt (13.4 oz/ton) sub-interval - among the best results yet at Idaho-Maryland, alongside further intercepts in the 52 Vein and a shallow near-surface zone.
The first drill hole into Idaho-Maryland's '52 Vein' area returned a bonanza-grade 149.3 gpt gold over 6.8m, establishing it as a major new exploration target as drilling on the historic Idaho #1 Vein got underway.
Reported the deepest gold intercept yet in Idaho-Maryland's history - 22.4 gpt over 5.2m in the Brunswick vein system - along with a wide, lower-grade intercept, continuing to expand the deposit downward.
Follow-up Idaho-Maryland drilling confirmed gold mineralization continuing below historic mine workings, with new intercepts up to 8.0 gpt gold and visible gold observed in core across six tested veins.
Rise Gold issued a press release on January 3, 2018 announcing assay results from its drill program at the Idaho-Maryland Gold Project, which had been announced on October 23, 2017. The filing itself gives no assay figures.
Announced 2013 exploration plans focused on expanding the KM 66 silver-gold deposit with Bearing Resources, and disclosed the company will not proceed with the La Buena project joint venture with San Marco after all - a strategic narrowing to one Mexican project.
Signed a letter of intent with Bearing Resources to earn up to a 75% interest in the 13,400-hectare KM 66 (Mapimi) silver-gold-lead-zinc property in Durango, Mexico. Terms included staged payments, US$2 million of work spending and 1.2 million shares to Bearing.
