SKYG · Price
Executive Summary
- Sky Gold Corp. announces a fall drilling program on the Tower gold target at its Evening Star property in Mineral County, Nevada, with permits for up to nine drill pads.
- The Tower target is supported by historic rock and soil sampling that returned significant anomalous grades (average 2.01 g/t Au; peak 18.21 g/t Au) and elevated silver, copper, lead, and zinc values.
- The planned drill program will test a >400‑m long, up to 100‑m wide zone of anomalous gold in soil and bedrock, aiming to delineate a potential distal gold system or porphyry Cu association.
Key Details
