With four rigs drilling, and a fifth to be added shortly, Black Swan Gold Mines (BSW-T) is stepping up the pace of exploration work at its Cata Preta gold project in Brazil’s Minas Gerais state.
The program is focused on extending the belt of mineralized carvoeira, stepping out southward from a recent hole (21A) that intersected a true width of 43 metres grading 29.34 grams gold per tonne.
Results are in hand from hole 23D-1, drilled 50 metres south of hole 21A, which intersected the mineralized structure between 60.1 and 88.35 metres.
The average uncut grade of the 28.25-metre intercept is 2.66 grams gold.
In addition to the carvoeira program, exploration work is continuing to investigate gold mineralization contained in quartzites and ironstones of the underlying sediments. Several old adits have been cleared, and sampling is in progress.
