Property adjoins the Pure Gold Red Lake Mine project - Canada's next gold mine with first production scheduled for late 2020
VICTORIA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 24, 2020 /GoldON Resources Ltd. (TSXV:GLD) ("GoldON" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the initial diamond drilling program recently completed at the West Madsen gold property (the "Property").
GoldON has the right to earn a 100% interest in the Property through an option agreement with Great Bear Resources (see news release of May 28, 2019 and regional claim map Figure 1). The Property is comprised of two contiguous claim blocks (Block "A" and "B"), each roughly six kilometres (km) by three km in size for a total area of 3,860 hectares (see Figure 2).
The objective of the drilling program was to test four of six main drill target areas trending east-west that run sub-parallel to magnetic lineaments on Block A of the Property (see Figure 3). These lineaments are interpreted to represent the contact between the Balmer and Confederation assemblages which is a geological/structural contact similar to the adjacent Pure Gold Red Lake Mine property (Mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization hosted on the West Madsen property).
Three of the four planned target areas were tested during this initial drilling program. A total of seven diamond drill holes were completed for a totalling 2,237.25 metres. The company is now awaiting assay results and further updates will be provided as they are received.
A summary of the drill hole targets follows:

WM-20-01

264.00
|
WM-20-01, 02 & 03 were drilled to test for a large soil gas hydrocarbon (SGH)
gold pathfinder anomaly. The anomalies are on the margin of a SGH redox cell
and correspond to anomalous gold-bearing samples collected during a
prospecting program.

WM-20-02
|
282.00
|
|
WM-20-03
|
267.00
|
|
WM-20-04
|
263.25
|
WM-20-04 was designed to test a large linear magnetic anomaly at the centre of
a large Redox cell with a corresponding SGH "gold" anomaly.
|
|
WM-20-05
|
402.00
|
WM-20-05, 06 & 07 were drilled to test for potential ultramafic stratigraphy
under Tack Lake. Drilling targeted a series of magnetic highs and magnetic
breaks along strike from a large magnetic high that underlies ultramafic float
collected during the 2019 summer prospecting program. This corridor is along
strike from the projected western extension of an east-west magnetic trend from
Pure Gold's Red Lake Mine property.
