Over 15,000m of drill samples have been submitted to ALS in Fairbanks Diamond drilling to continue unabated with over 25,000m completed to date and up to 80,000m planned for 2021
NVA CEO, Mr. Christopher Gerteisen commented: "The mineralisation within the Korbel Main footprint is particularly encouraging as the drilling has now demonstrated several well-defined mineralised domains that will be incorporated into the optimised pit model as we progress through the economic assessment.
Drilling continues unabated with one diamond drill rig at Pad 6 testing the newly defined South-East extension of Korbel Main which is contiguous to the same higher grade mineralised zone through Korbel Main. With 15,000m of drill sample results now due to come in over the short term, we look forward to updating our resource in 2021.
Nova is an ideal position to achieve our goal of progressing Korbel Main to production whilst concurrently unlocking the Estelle gold district. By implementing our dual exploration and development strategy, we will seek to maximise our ability to create value for shareholders through both resource growth and project development."
