Advance Gold Starts Drilling into Heart of Big Geophysical Anomaly Targeting Plumbing of Sulphide System at Tabasquena Project in Zacatecas, Mexico
Kamloops, July 23, 2020 - Advance Gold Corp. (TSXV: AAX) ("Advance Gold" or "the Company") is pleased to announce drilling is underway at its Tabasquena project in Mexico. Drilling will focus on a key area of a 3200 plus metre continuous chargeability anomaly, where there is a Hinge zone in the anomaly and then it drops vertically beyond the detection limits of the geophysical survey.
Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: "After we identified a 3200 plus metre continuous chargeability anomaly with an IP geophysical survey, we drilled 3 holes into the southern end of the anomaly where it is the shallowest. Out there we hit stacked layers of disseminated sulphides. Now we are stepping back approximately 3000 metres to the north end of the anomaly. At this drill location the geophysical anomaly has a Hinge zone and then drops down beyond the detection limits of the geophysical survey. The image below captures the large geophysical anomaly, where we drilled the first 3 holes and hit stacked layers of disseminated sulphides and drill hole 16 where we are targeting the Hinge zone of the anomaly. Our interpretation is that this northern portion of the anomaly is the potential plumbing system for what appears to be a very large sulphide system."
