Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 1, 2024) - Sixty North Gold Mining Ltd. (CSE: SXTY) (FSE: 2F40) (OTC Pink: SXNTF) (the "Company" or "Sixty North Gold")
Sixty North Gold is pleased to announce that the exercise of 678,000 - $0.18 warrants brought $122,040 into the Company in July.
Operationally, the newly reported DD-Zone is exposed for 12 m in the 3m x 4m Main Ramp where it averages 1.2 m in width within intense pink altered metasedimentary rocks of the Burwash Formation. Historic diamond drilling extends this vein 40 m up to surface and along strike for 100m where it remains open to the south. An estimated 13,000 tonnes of this gold-bearing vein is located above the ramp elevation to surface. Samples from the West Limb of the A-Zone and the DD-Zone have been submitted for assay at independent certified laboratories in late July and the results will help guide development plans. Advances along the crosscut 970 XCE are expected to intersect the east limb of the A-Zone within two weeks (see Plan View of Mon Underground Development below).
