Belmont Resources Ltd. announced signing of a drilling contract for the Athelstan Jackpot (A-J) gold project in the Greenwood mining camp of southern British Columbia, with commencement scheduled February 2021. The drilling program will be the first undertaken by Belmont at the project and represents a significant milestone for the Company following closing of a recent financing. Drilling will be completed by Hardrock Diamond Drilling Ltd. based in Penticton, B.C. The contracted program is for 2,000m in up to eight holes, with an opportunity to expand the program based on positive results. The A-J property has two past producing gold mines which collectively produced 7,600 ozs Au & 9,000 ozs Ag (Minfile 082ESE047). The A-J Group was one of the most productive gold mines in the Greenwood mining district of southern British Columbia. A series of exploration programs carried out in 2020 consisting of LIDAR, 3DIP and airborne magnetics have delineated strong coincident anomalies only 150 meters below the two former gold mines which may be possible causative source(s) of extensive gold mineralization at surface including the two gold mines themselves. Historic diamond drilling on the A-J property (1981, 1987, 1991) were primarily very shallow holes and these anomalies remain untested.
