NuLegacy Commences Drilling on the Wood Hills Project, Nevada
(firmenpresse) - RENO, NEVADA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/02/11 -- NuLegacy Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE: NUG) has recently commenced drilling at its Wood Hills South gold project.
The Wood Hills Project is located adjacent to and on trend with the West Pequop and Long Canyon gold deposits in north-central Nevada, which were recently acquired by Newmont Mining Corporation for approximately $2.3 billion.
"We are very excited to be drilling at Wood Hills", says Dr. Roger Steininger, COO of NuLegacy, "as this will be the first time this property is drilled. The potential is significant since we believe that the Wood Hills Project may be the southwestern extension of the emerging West Pequop gold district."
The 2,000 meter reverse circulation drill program is designed as an initial test of the geophysical and geochemical targets that were established by the 31,000 meters of IP/Resistivity (geophysics) and 70,000 meters of soil sampling (geochemical) surveys completed during the past year's preparatory exploration programs.
The important aspects of the Wood Hills South Project that have been identified are:
The first drill holes will test several of these anomalies to develop a better understanding of the covered geology and its gold mineralization potential. It is anticipated that the drilling will consist of mostly short holes (150 meters) to sample the bedrock formations followed with deeper holes once gold-bearing mineralization has been located. The drill results are expected to be available in Q1 2012.
NuLegacy Gold Corporation is a Nevada focused exploration company exploring for Carlin-type replacement gold deposits on its two highly prospective district scale properties; the 100 km2 Project and the 80 km2 South Project. Both projects have geology similar to that of the adjacent multi-million ounce gold that were made subsequent to our acquisition of the properties. The NuLegacy exploration and drilling programs underway employ proprietary techniques for targeting multi-million ounce deposits.
