Aurwest Resources Corporation reported drill results from recent exploration drilling at the Paradise Lake Project, central Newfoundland. These initial results provide analytical assay data results for the first three drill holes completed as part of the eleven-hole drilling program at Paradise Lake within the 4.5km long Cape Ray Valentine Lake corridor. Highlights include:
Hole PL-22-01 returned a 3.4m interval averaging 2.50 g/t gold over a core interval from 80-83.4m, including 0.9m of 6.20 g/t gold. Additional sampling of DDH Pl-22-01 has been completed to fill in open ended intervals of gold mineralization. Drilling is expected to commence next week to continue testing priority target areas identified in 2021and interpreted extensions of the gold mineralization identified to date. The 2022 mapping and prospecting program is underway and focusing on the west side of the Twin Ponds-Paradise Lake area to determine the source of a large resistivity high outlined by the 2021 IP program.
