GGX GOLD COMMENCES Diamond Drilling to test Newly Discovery Perky Vein Surface Sample Assays up to 54.0 g/t Gold and 303 g/t Silver
GGX Gold Corp. has announced the commencement of diamond drilling on the newly discovered Perky vein at its Gold Drop property in British Columbia. Previous surface trenching revealed promising results, including assays of up to 54.0 g/t gold, 303 g/t silver, and 397 g/t tellurium. The Perky vein, located 200 meters west of the C.O.D. vein, averages 22.7 g/t gold over 10.3 meters. Drilling will initially target shallow depths and progressively extend deeper to follow the vein structure.
- Commencement of diamond drilling on the Perky vein.
- Assay results indicate high mineralization with up to 54.0 g/t gold and 303 g/t silver.
- Potential for expanded exploration with a 10.3-meter average of 22.7 g/t gold.
- None.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 24, 2020 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSXV:GGX)(OTCQB:GGXXF)(FRA:3SR2) (the "Company" or "GGX") is pleased to provide an exploration update on its program at the Gold Drop property in the Greenwood Mining Camp of south-central British Columbia.
Diamond drilling is now commencing on the Perky vein, a new discovery vein, where promising assay results were obtained from surface trenching this year. Grab and channel sample results ranged up to 54.0 grams per tonne gold, 303 grams per tonne silver and 397 grams per tonne tellurium. Channel samples assays averaged 22.7 grams per tonne gold, 107.6 grams per tonne silver and 67.0 grams per tonnes tellurium over a sampled length of 10.3 metres (refer to news release dated November 11).

The Perky vein is a parallel structure to the C.O.D. vein, where most of the drilling has been completed on the property to date. It is located 200 metres west of C.O.D., is vertically dipping, strikes northwest and is exposed over a strike length of 13.8 metres with an average width of 0.44 metres.
The drilling will initially test the vein at shallow depths beneath the surface trench and then follow the structure to increasing depths and along strike.

Analyses disclosed in this release were conducted by ALS Global - Geochemistry Analytical Lab in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. ALS is an independent, fully accredited commercial laboratory. Gold was determined by the fire assay method using a 50-gram sample weight and AA finish, with over-limits checked using a 50-gram sample weight and gravimetric finish. Other metals were analyzed as part of a 48-element package using a four-acid digestion and determination by ICP-MS.
