Visible gold observed in two of the first thirteen drill holes including within a 30.8 metre interval drilled in the "A" and "RJ" zones. Formation is presently undertaking the first drill campaign at ...

Phase 1 has been expanded to a fully funded 7,500 metre program targeting expansion targets in the “A” zone, a shallow, highly continuous, low-variability historic gold deposit with ~522,900 ounces of ...

Understanding how gold forms is crucial for knowing where to find it and how to extract it sustainably. McGill researchers have answered a long-standing question in geology that could lead to new ore ...

The study focuses on how gold formed and moved within the Sawayaerdun gold deposit in northwest China, a large orogenic system shaped by long periods of burial, deformation and heating. Before any ...

A new study led by Prof. Xiao Wenjiao from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences sheds light on the ore-forming process and key mechanisms of the gold ...
