Tower Resources Commences 2017 Exploration Program at Nechako Gold Project
The 2017 exploration program is designed to follow-up on results from the highly successful 2016 till survey (see Tower's News Release dated January 18, 2017), which delineated a 3.5 kilometers long by 2 kilometer wide gold grain anomaly defined by high gold grain counts (up to 268 grains per sample). The gold-in-till target area is broadly coincident with an airborne geophysical signature analogous to that of the Blackwater deposit. Additionally, broad zones of highly anomalous gold in altered volcanics were reported by a previous operator in 2013 diamond drilling collared at the periphery of the gold source target area.
The exploration program commences with ground geophysical crews mobilizing to site to undertake 24 line-kilometers of Induced Polarization and Ground Magnetics surveys over the head of the dispersion train and coincident geochemical and geophysical anomalies. Survey results will be interpreted and compiled with historic and recent data to further refine gold target areas. Follow-up shallow, top-of-bedrock Reverse-Circulation (RC) drilling is planned for fall of 2017 to test for mineralization below shallow till cover. Diamond drilling will be completed subsequent to the RC drill program, testing to depth gold targets as outlined by RC results.
