Junior Mining Exclusive: K2 Gold CEO Steven Swatton Discusses Challenges of Mojave Drill Program
Toronto, October 14 2020 - Utilizing a Canadian helicopter and crew to eliminate risk of their helicopter being confiscated for California fire-fighting efforts, K2Gold Corporation (TSXV:KTO) (OTC: KTGDF) has begun a four-week drill program at its Mojave project in Inyo County in Southern California. The drill program will span 16 holes and focus on two gold rich zones known as Dragonfly and Newmont, which collectively span a 4.5-kilometer strike length of known mineralization.
President & CEO Steven Swatton says that the weather is finally cooling, fires abating and his team is excited to move forward.
Swatton says the short delays were actually beneficial, as it gave him physical time on the ground to meet with local leaders and discuss the possibility of breathing new life (and jobs) into a historical California mining region which has gone dormant.
