CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / November 23, 2021 / Kestrel Gold Inc. ('Kestrel' or the 'Corporation')(TSXV:KGC) is pleased to announce the completion of the Corporation's inaugural reverse circulation ('RC') drill program on its QCM property. The program, comprising 992.38 metres in seven holes, provided infill drilling within, and tested the potential for northwest strike extensions to, the QCM Zone. Variably pyritized, carbonate altered and quartz veined greywacke and lesser argillite were encountered throughout the entirety of each hole.
Holes were sampled continuously from bedrock to termination of hole, typically in 1.52 metre intervals. Samples were submitted to Bureau Veritas laboratory in Vancouver for preparation and analyses. Kestrel anticipates receiving assay results for this work in early 2022.
QCM Project Highlights:
Results from the Sixtymile RC drill program completed earlier this summer have been received, compiled and interpreted. Although sections of silicification, vuggy quartz, clay alteration and occasional trace pyrite and arsenopyrite mineralization were noted, no significant gold or silver bearing intervals were encountered.
Rob Solinger, President and CEO of Kestrel, states: 'We are pleased to have completed our inaugural QCM drill program. The next few months will see various QCM related catalysts for Kestrel including receipt of results for the second phase prospecting program, the completion of a detailed interpretation of the airborne geophysical survey and finally the receipt of assay results from the QCM RC drill program. The company currently has sufficient cash to complete an expanded program at QCM next season as well as to pursue other opportunities.'
