TORONTO, Aug. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - Treasury Metals
Inc. (TSX: TML) ("Treasury" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce it has commenced the Phase II drilling
exploration program at the Company's flagship Goliath Gold Project
located in Northwestern
Ontario.
The Phase II program will consist of 15,000 metres of
underground infill drilling in the Main Zone resource area. In
addition, an expansion and exploration program of 15,000 metres
will focus on 'high priority' step out targets outside of the known
Goliath resource area along strike to the northeast to test near
surface targets as well as extending down-dip below the current
resource in both the Main and C Zone areas.
Infill Drilling Program
The initial 15,000 metres of infill drilling will allow for
further resource conversion from inferred to the indicated
category, primarily in the lower extents of the central and eastern
shoots of the Main Zone resource area. The drill holes are outlined
in the attached image.
At the conclusion of the infill program an updated NI 43-101
Resource Estimate, incorporating all of the new drill results since
the resource was last updated in 2015, will be completed for the
Feasibility Study. The Company expects the infill drilling program
to be completed by December.
Expansion and Exploration Program
The second 15,000-meter drill program will focus on: 1)
underground drilling of known gold mineralization, in particular,
the central area of the Main Zone; and 2) step out drilling along
strike to the northeast of the proposed open pit, including
follow-up work from the Phase I condemnation program completed in
July, 2017.
Drill results from the recent 5,000 metre condemnation drilling
program will be issued in the near future.
The technical information in this press release has been
reviewed and approved by Adam
Larsen, P. Geo, who is the qualified person under the
