The recent drilling has intersected the up-dip extension of several North Dipper zones associated with the Main Zone Corridor.

The Gladiator Deposit consists of a set of shear-hosted sub-vertical quartz veins oriented at 60 degrees azimuth and spatially associated with felsic dykes. The zones named spatially from the north-northwest to the south-southeast are as follows: The North Zone, Footwall Zone and the Main Zone. 

Pascal Hamelin, Bonterra’s CEO, stated,

“These recent drill results confirm additional occurrences and extensions of high-grade north-dipping structures outside of the existing 2021 MRE at Gladiator. Drill rigs at Gladiator have been moved onto land for the winter months to focus on deeper drilling to test new targets.”

Bonterra is a gold exploration company with a portfolio of advanced exploration assets anchored by a central milling facility in Quebec.

Bonterra (BTR) is down by 0.72 per cent and is currently trading at $1.37 per share as of 9:30 am ET.
