Calibre Mining (CXB) released the first results from step-out drilling along the Panteon North/VTEM geophysical corridor in the Limon Mine Complex.

Drilling was designed to test the multi-kilometre long structure, and these results are located 2.5 kilometres north of Panteon North, which has had numerous bonanza grade gold.

Initial results:

  • 11.61 g/t Au over 9.3 metres estimated true width, including 23.93 g/t Au over 1.7 metres ETW, and 15.34 g/t Au over 3.9 metres estimated true width in Hole LIM-22-4701
  • 6.73 g/t Au over 2.1 metres estimated true width in Hole LIM-22-4689
  • 3.67 g/t Au over 2.6 metres estimated true width including 11.10 g/t Au over 0.7 metres ETW in Hole LIM-22-4684

Calibre’s President and CEO, Darren Hall, said that the 2022 drilling campaign has been very successful, with the discovery of the high-grade Panteon North gold shoot, which hosts numerous bonanza-grade gold intercepts over hundreds of metres of strike length.

“First pass, wide-spaced drilling approximately 2.5 kilometres north of Panteon North along the VTEM geophysical corridor has now discovered another new high-grade gold zone which stretches over an initial 1.5-kilometre trend. The VTEM survey has proven to be an excellent tool for targeting zones of high-grade gold mineralization along multiple kilometres of strike from Panteon North. Discovery drilling is underway with four diamond drill rigs along the corridor.”

Panteon North is expected to contribute positively to the company’s 2022 resource and reserve statement expected in Q1 2023.
