During recent drilling, G2 Goldfields (TSX:GTWO) expanded the newest discovery at its Oko gold project in Guyana, hitting wide intersections of near-surface, oxidized gold.

The discovery is only a few miles away from the project’s flagship gold resources at the Oko main zone and Ghanie – representing 1.5 million ounces of gold indicated and 1.6 million ounces inferred, respectively – granting it the potential to materially improve project scale and economics.

The four drillholes spanning 352.5 metres reported in Tuesday’s news release hit strong mineralization, all within 20 metres of surface, substantiating continuity along strike and down plunge from previous drilling. Mineralization remains open in all directions with assays pending.

The news follows the first eight drillholes on the new discovery announced on March 18, 2025.

Leadership insights

“It’s very early days for this discovery but based on the dozen or so holes we have seen so far, this discovery is quite exciting,” Dan Noone, G2 Goldfields’ chief executive officer, said in a statement. “In a little over a month of drilling, we have established over 400 m of strike of near-surface, oxidized gold mineralization. Additionally, we have confirmed very good down-plunge continuity in the areas tested thus far. As a result, we are immediately adding an additional drill rig to this program and stand ready to provide additional drills as required.”
