As quoted in the press release:

Highlights:

  • Drilling successfully provided data to upgrade Revenue Zone Target Deposit to Inferred Resource. A N.I. 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Revenue Zone is pending
  • Drilling at Revenue Zone extends known mineralization an additional 250 m east, 300 m north and 250 m depth;
  • Geophysics identifies multiple high-priority targets for mineralization at Stoddart Zone, 6 km from Revenue
  • New institutional marketing campaign initiated

Northern Freegold President and CEO John Burges said:

“We are very pleased with the progress made in 2011 at Freegold Mountain. The drilling at the Revenue Zone has given us the data we need to upgrade the Target Deposit into an inferred resource. Furthermore, we have greatly expanded the area of known mineralization at Revenue, and defined a number of highly prospective porphyry drill targets at the Stoddart Zone. In 2012 we will continue to work to build additional resources, and we believe that the Freegold Mountain project will emerge as a leading gold-copper porphyry deposit.”
