An Echelon Wealth Partners report explained this company’s recently reported assays and why it is a top pick.
Ryan Walker, an analyst with Echelon Wealth Partners, reported in a June 26 research note that new drill results revealed additional high grades and extended the mineralization at the A zone of Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd.’s (WDO:TSX) Kiena Deep discovery in Val d’Or.
As for the results from the latest batch of holes, “visible gold was observed in the majority of the drill holes within predominantly shear zone-hosted quartz veins,” Walker relayed. Assays showed “impressive, multiounce, high-grade mineable intervals.” For instance, hole 6300 hit 132.1 grams per ton (g/t) gold over 13.2m at a 6.4m true width, and hole 6308 hit 42.6 g/t gold over 12.6m at a 10.4m true width.
Results confirmed the continuity of the mineralized zones and that the “dip of the contact is shallow to the east,” Walker clarified. They also suggested “additional potential for downplunge mineralization along the bend or ‘kink’ in the hosting shear zone.”
The A zone remains open along strike in both directions and down dip. Drilling continues with three rigs, with the goals of better delineating the known mineralization and potential extensions, and perhaps discovering new zones. Assays remain pending for 10 other drilled holes.
Along with a steady flow of Kiena assay results (drilling is in progress at the Upper Quartz and VC zones, too), upcoming catalysts for Wesdome include an updated project resource estimate in Q4/18 and improved “production and exploration from the Eagle River underground mine in Ontario,” wrote Walker.
He reiterated that Echelon has a Top Pick status, a Speculative Buy rating and a CA$4.40 per share target price on Wesdome. The miner’s stock is currently trading at around CA$2.90 per share, “a good entry point” ahead of the near-term catalysts, he added.
