Ridgeline Minerals’ (RDG) Phase V drill program at the Selena Project commenced on May 2, 2022.

Selena is a silver, gold, lead, zinc carbonate replacement style discovery located in White Pine County, Nevada.

The Phase V program will drill up to 8 holes (5,500 m) and test the conceptual CRD and Skarn targets located down-dip and to the west of its original shallow-oxide, Ag-Au ± Pb-Zn discovery.

Samples are delivered directly to the lab from the site, and assay results will be announced as they are received.

Mike Harp, Ridgeline’s Vice President, Exploration, commented,

“We’ve spent almost a year putting together the porphyry zonation model at Selena. Our team is excited to finally be testing the conceptual CRD and Skarn targets.”

“We believe this program will confirm the district-scale exploration potential at Selena with multiple targets still to be tested across the 39 square kilometre property,” added Harp.

Selena is located in White Pine County, Nevada, approximately 64 kilometres north of the town of Ely, NV, and 25 km southeast of the Kinross owned and operated Bald Mountain Gold Mine.

The 100 per cent owned Selena project is comprised of 39 square km of highly prospective exploration ground, including Ridgeline’s 2020 Ag-Au ± Pb-Zn discovery.

Drilling in 2021 highlighted the potential to target high-grade CRD type mineralization between Ridgeline’s original discovery and the Butte Valley Cu-Au-Ag porphyry located directly west of the property.

Samples are submitted to Paragon Geochemical Assay Laboratories (PAL) of Sparks, Nevada, a certified and accredited laboratory independent of the company.

Ridgeline is a discovery-focused gold-silver explorer with a proven management team and a 163 km² exploration portfolio across five projects in Nevada and Idaho, USA.

Ridgeline Minerals Corp. (RDG) is trading at 3.57 per cent, trading at C$0.29 at 10:53 am ET.
