Walker River Resources (WRR) is announcing additional drill results from the 2021 reverse circulation drill programs at its Lapon Gold Project.
The 100-per-cent owned project is located approximately 60 kilometres southeast of Yerington, Nevada.
The latest phase of drilling was required to determine structure and morphology for 3D geological modelling.
Results from the drilling expand the gold mineralization at Lapon Canyon, further define the direction and dip of the higher-grade structures and expand gold mineralization both laterally and to depth.
The drill program is designed to ascertain granite contacts and their relationships with the altered gold mineralized alteration zones. The Vancouver-based company continues to intercept gold assay results in what was previously believed to be barren granite.
The 2021 drill program will now target the higher-grade trends and expand the new gold mineralization previously discovered at the 8,800-foot elevation, and at the Honeypot, Holes, lateral extension and infill of LC 21-65, among other targets.
The Lapon Gold Project consists of 147 claims, covering 2,940 acres situated in the Wassuk Range, within the Walker Lane shear zone, a 100-kilometre-wide structural corridor extending in a southeast direction from Reno, Nevada.
Walker River Resources is down 10 per cent, trading at $0.045 at 11:49 am ET.
