Rainy Mountain Provides Drilling Results for its Eva Kitto Property
.
"..... Rainy Mountain’s Drill Hole EK-12-01 was drilled to explore for the first time a negative magnetic anomaly for potential Ni-Cu-PGE (nickel, copper, platinum group elements) "Noril’sk-type" mineralization, as previously observed by International Bethlehem. .... Drill Hole EK-12-01 was the first drill hole to explore the northernmost (and thickest) portion of the intrusion. The hole was drilled to a depth of 405 metres (intersecting 377 metres of the Kitto Intrusion below 28 metres of cover rocks) and did not reach the basement contact or basal target. As a result, the magnetic anomaly remains unexplained and merits further exploration and drilling."
.................................................
[B] the EVA KITTO property is about 10 km southwest of the town of Beardmore.
The nearest past producer in the Beardmore area is the Northern Empire Mine .
.
Historically, the Beardmore-Geraldton mineral belt, located east of Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada has produced over 4.1 million ounces of gold from several deposits, most of which occur within its 84 kilometers east-west extant, which is up to 21 kilometers wide.
