Scorpio Gold Drills 11.79 g/t Gold Over 9.14 Meters at Custer

Scorpio Gold Corp. (TSXV:SGN) released results from 2015 exploration drilling at the Custer target, located at its Nevada-based Mineral Ridge project.
As quoted in the press release:

The Custer target is a previously undrilled area that lies along trend of and ~500 meters southeast of the Mary LC deposit. Forty-nine holes tested an area over 575 meters wide, intersecting mineralization in over 70% of the holes drilled. A number of high-grade intersections were returned, including some over substantial widths. The majority of intersections lie at 40 to 60 meter vertical depths. The Company’s management considers this to be a highly successful first-pass drilling campaign for the Custer target area. Follow-up drilling along strike and down dip of the intersected mineralization is planned in 2016.

• MR151705: 11.79 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 9.14 meters
