Green River Gold Corp. (CCR) released preliminary results for a drill hole on its Quesnel Nickel Project.

The project is located in the Cariboo Mining District in South Central British Columbia.

The company completed the first Winkie drill hole (WK-23-01) for the 2023 season, which ended at a depth of 120.9 metres. A strong serpentinized alteration zone was intersected from 47.4 metres to 50.8 metres.

This phase of drilling is a continuation of the Zone 1 and Zone 2 drilling program from 2022 and will comprise 500 meters in five diamond drill holes. 

President & CEO, Perry Little commented that the nickel, cobalt, chromium, and magnesium mineralization started at the bedrock surface.

“That is the result we were hoping to achieve. The very pleasant surprise was finding the zone with the high gold, zinc, cobalt, and lead XRF readings. That introduces even more possibilities for the 14-kilometre long Deep Purple magnetic anomaly. We await assay results for the newly discovered alteration zone.”

The project’s geologist, Tyler Tian added that with the anomaly of gold, zinc, cobalt, and lead, the team believes this drill hole is close to a potential local source of gold, silver, lead, and zinc metallic vein system filled by hydrothermal fluids through the neighbouring Eureka Thrust Fault.

“We look forward to seeing more of this type of vein in core and bringing more variety to the project.”

The next drill hole WK-23-02 is presently being drilled 900 metres northwest of WK-23-01.

Green River Gold Corp. holds 100 per cent ownership of more than 200 sq. km. of mineral claims at its neighbouring Fontaine Gold and Quesnel Nickel Projects.

Green River Gold Corp. (CCR) is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on its wholly-owned Fontaine Gold Project, Quesnel Nickel/Magnesium/Talc Project, and Kymar Silver Project, located in renowned mining districts in British Columbia.

Green River Gold Corp. (CCR) opened trading at $0.05 per share.
