Scorpio Gold Corp.<\/strong> [SGN<\/a>-TSXV] announced initial gold and silver assay results from underground drilling at its Goldwedge property located in Manhattan, Nevada.<\/p>\n

The 2020 drilling program is focused on resource definition in areas where the company\u2019s 2014 surface drilling intersected higher-grade mineralization proximal to existing underground workings. Drilling was conducted using the company\u2019s Atlas Copco 262 skid-mounted drill rig operated by company personnel.<\/p>\n

Drill hole GWUG20-001 targeted an area where 2014 surface hole GW14-03 encountered high-grade mineralization proximal to existing underground workings. The hole was collared in the face of crosscut A at the 6,760-foot elevation and was drilled at 247\u00b0 azimuth and -10\u00b0 dip. Drilling intersected several mineralized zones, the most significant being a 7.6-metre intersection averaging 12.47 g\/t gold and 176.23 g\/t silver, which included 1.52 metres of 53.49 g\/t gold and 0.15 metres of 3,960 g\/t silver. The mineralized zone lies approximately 30 metres (100 ft) below surface and extends immediately southeast from existing underground workings.<\/p>\n

Drill hole GWUG20-002 targeted the down-dip extension of the mineralized zone intersected in GWUG20-001. The hole was collared in the same location and at the same azimuth but angled at a -37\u00b0 dip. Multiple mineralized zones were intersected with the most significant returning 5.55 g\/t gold and 17.14 g\/t silver over 0.91 metres. This hole also intersected 1.52 metres grading 1,707 g\/t silver from 6.4 to 7.92 metres downhole.<\/p>\n

Drill hole GWUG20-003 targeted the southeast extension of the mineralized zone intersected in GWUG20-001. The hole was collared in the same location as the first 2 holes and drilled at 211\u00b0 azimuth and -10\u00b0 dip. Multiple mineralized zones were encountered with the most significant assay received to date returning 5.11 g\/t gold over 1.52 meters. Final assays for this hole are pending. Refer to company press release for complete drill results.<\/p>\n

Scorpio Gold holds a 100% interest in the advanced exploration-stage Goldwedge property in Manhattan, Nevada with a fully permitted underground mine and 400 ton per day mill facility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
