Western Exploration Stock Price, News & Analysis

Western Exploration Inc. has reported positive assay results from its Phase 1 drill program at the Doby George deposit, part of the Aura Project in Nevada. Drill holes DGC794, DGC795, and DGC796 demonstrated significant gold mineralization, with DGC794 revealing 26.06 meters of 6.93 g/t Au. The results confirm high-grade, near-surface oxide gold mineralization, encouraging further metallurgical tests and a Pre-Feasibility Study in 2023. The company plans step-out drilling to explore additional high-grade areas, with potential drilling of 5,000 to 10,000 meters in new geological zones which may expand resource estimates dramatically.
