VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2023 / iMetal Resources, Inc. (TSX.V:IMR)(OTC PINK:ADTFF)(FRANKFURT:A7V) ("iMetal" or the "Company") is pleased to announce 2023 Phase One exploration plans for the Company's Gowganda West and Ghost Mountain projects; both lie within the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Gold Belt.
Saf Dhillon, Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Along with our flagship Gowganda West project, iMetal is focused on building shareholder value by bringing our other gold assets forward to the drilling stage by utilizing some of the modern exploration methods. The Abitibi Greenstone Belt is one of the most prolific gold areas in the World and our technical team believes our properties are ideally located to offer excellent opportunities for a major discovery."
The Company is in the final planning stages for the next phase of drilling at Gowganda West, scheduled for the second half of March. Gowganda West is an exploration-stage gold project about 100 km south-southeast of Timmins, Ontario, contiguous to Aris Mining's Juby Project in the Shining Tree Camp of the southern part of the Abitibi Greenstone Gold Belt; contiguous also with the Knight project that is part of the Strategic Partnership between Orefinders Resources Inc. and Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. iMetal completed a 2611 m drilling program in the fall of 2022 which intersected a new gold trend. The Property also has multiple-ounce grab samples from trends that have yet to be drill tested.
The Company has engaged Waring Minerals Inc. to undertake a Digitally Enhanced Prospecting program at Ghost Mountain, utilizing UAV LiDAR and onsite analysis to find outcrops for the purposes of sampling and mapping. This program is scheduled to commence the first week of March. Ghost Mountain is a 220-hectare property, 42 km NE of Kirkland Lake, which lies 5 km directly west of Agnico Eagle's Holt and Holloway Mine and within 1 km of the Porcupine-Destor Fault Zone.
