Golden Predator Mining Corp. March 7 reported that it collected roughly 550 tons of gold-quartz vein material from the Sleeping Giant zone of its 3 Aces project in eastern Yukon Territory and the bulk sampling program continues.
This sampling began in mid-February and is expected to conclude by the end of March 2016.
Golden Predator originally targeted 550 tons of material, but after noting good vein continuity with visible gold within the down-dip continuation of the vein, company geologists elected to expand the program.
Processing of the bulk sample will begin during March and is expected to continue through April.
Golden Predator said the bulk sample program will assist in designing future drill programs to accurately estimate the grade of the vein.
