- Grab samples are selectively taken and random in size and may not be representative of mineralization characteristics
Michael Thompson, P.Geo., President and CEO, commented, “Bluffpoint continues to impress with the number of new showings being discovered. These encouraging results, along with the structural and alteration mapping, has enabled us to refine our mineralization model. Targeting is ongoing utilizing these results for eventual drill testing in the future”.
Kesselrun’s Bluffpoint Gold Project is located approximately 50 km northeast of, and on the same structural trend as, New Gold’s Rainy River mine which is currently under construction. First production at Rainy River is estimated for September 2017 at a rate of 325,000 ounces per year (See New Gold’s January 30, 2017 news release). Kesselrun’s management believes Bluffpoint has all the ingredients to host a major gold deposit and continues to move the project forward.
