#Significant Gold Intersections at Tesorito
Tiger Gold Corp. (TSXV: TIGR) has reported substantial assay results from its ongoing drilling operations at the Tesorito deposit within the Quinchía Gold Project in Colombia. The latest findings include remarkable gold intersections, with one drill hole recording 234.5 meters at a grade of 1.2 grams per ton (g/t) Au, and another yielding 180.3 meters at 1.0 g/t Au. These results significantly surpass the average inferred resource grade of 0.47 g/t Au for the deposit.
#Details of Recent Drill Holes
The assays come from drill holes TSDH-87 and TSDH-88, which are part of a broader exploration initiative. TSDH-88 logged an impressive 234.54 meters from a depth of just 2 meters, including notable intervals of 27.6 meters at 1.8 g/t Au and 26.57 meters at 2.3 g/t Au. Meanwhile, TSDH-87 recorded 180.3 meters from surface, with several intervals of interest, including 66.5 meters at a grade of 1.3 g/t Au.
#Implications for Exploration and Resource Update
The results from these drill holes not only underscore the presence of a coherent, higher-grade corridor of gold mineralization but also position Tiger Gold favorably for an upcoming mineral resource update. The company anticipates that these findings will be instrumental in converting a portion of current resources to the "Indicated" category, enhancing the overall attractiveness of the Quinchía Gold Project.
#Ongoing Drilling Efforts
Drilling continues at the site with two rigs operating at Ceibal and another at Tesorito. Additional assay results are pending, which may provide further insights into the extent and quality of mineralization across the project. The current drilling phase aligns with Tiger Gold’s strategy to expand resource estimates and improve economic viability.
