Athena Gold: High-grade Gold Exploration in Ontario and Nevada


Athena Gold (CSE:ATHA,OTCQB:AHNR) is a gold exploration company advancing its asset in Ontario’s Red Lake Gold Camp in Canada, and its gold discovery project in Nevada’s Excelsior Springs in the US. Operating in two of the world’s safest, tier-one mining jurisdictions, the company aligns itself with the recent trend toward safer, more predictable mining jurisdictions.

The Laird Lake project, encompassing 4,158 hectares in Ontario’s Red Lake Gold District, spans over 10 kilometers of the Balmer-Confederation Assemblage contact, a key geological structure historically hosting major gold deposits, including the renowned Great Bear mine, now owned by Kinross (TSX:K,NYSE:KGC), and Madsen mine, owned by West Red Lake Gold (TSXV:WRLG:,OTCQB:WRLGF).
