Amador drills Cedar Island

A 10,000-metre drill program is under way at the KPM property, 60 km west of Kenora, Ont. Amador Gold (AGX-V) is drilling the past-producing property in order to expand a known gold resource and test exploration targets.

The drilling will test the vein system of the Cedar Island Mainland zone to a vertical depth of 400 metres, as well as test beneath the past-producing Cedar Island mine.

The project has similarities to other Archean vein-hosted deposits in greenstone belts, such as Red Lake. At last report, the project hosted an indicated and inferred resource of about 385,000 ounces contained gold.
