Field work is underway at West Oak Gold’s (WO) Hedge Hog Gold Project.

The project is located located 15 kilometres north of the Barkerville gold camp in British Columbia.

The Phase 1 work program has been designed to explore for structurally hosted gold at the Golden Sky target in the north part of the Hedge Hog property.

A grab sample taken by Eastfield Resource from an exposure in a road cut in 2013 returned 1.51 grams per tonne of gold, 1203 ppm arsenic and 1313 ppm antimony. A tightly spaced soil grid has revealed gold values to 206 ppb and arsenic values to 113 ppm.

Little work has been conducted on the property since 2013.

Soil sampling is now underway at Golden Sky to expand the current soils grid. The work will be followed by mechanical trenching to better expose the known mineralization, search for extensions along strike as well as testing anomalous soil locations.

Vancouver-based West Oak Gold is focused on gold exploration in Canada. It is currently actively exploring the Hedge Hog gold project located in the Caribou Mining Division of central British Columbia.

West Oak Gold is unchanged, trading at $0.00 at 12:20 pm ET.
