Junior gold explorer Red Pine Exploration has found five stacked mineralised gold zones outside of the existing compliant inferred resource at the Wawa project, in Ontario, blowing new life into a promising prospect in a high-grade historic mining camp.
Recent drilling has also intersected a shear zone(s) containing a quartz vein (assays pending), in which visible gold was observed and demonstrates a connection between the former Minto mine (23 000 oz at 12.56 g/t gold), towards the vicinity of the former Parkhill mine (54 298 oz at 14.81 g/t gold), demonstrating that both mines were likely formed as part of the same gold system.
