Balmoral Resources Begins Winter Drilling at Detour

Balmoral Resources (TSX:BAR) reported that it has began its planned $4.5 million exploration program at its Detour Trend project in Quebec. The country is conducting work at both its gold and nickel-copper-PGM prospects.

As quoted in the press release:

The winter 2015 program will focus on the continued lateral and vertical expansion of the Horizon 3 Ni-Cu-PGE discovery on the Grasset Property, further expansion and delineation of the Bug Lake Zone and broader Martiniere Gold System, and the initial drill testing of several priority targets along interpreted trend of the Grasset Ultramafic Complex (“GUC Trend”). The Grasset and Martiniere properties are wholly owned by the Company and form part of its 700+ square kilometre Detour Trend Project located at the northern end of the prolific Abitibi greenstone belt in Quebec.

Balmoral president and CEO, Darin Wagner, said:

After a tremendously successful 2014 exploration campaign we are very excited to get the drills turning again and continue to build on that success. With results from both our gold and nickel projects anticipated over the weeks ahead, and a multitude of geophysical targets located along the GUC Trend set for initial drill testing, the winter season will be a busy and event filled one for our crews and shareholders.
