Integra Adds a Drill to Increase Lamaque Drilling Program

Integra Gold Corp. (TSXV:ICG) announced the addition of a third drill to expand the drill program at the Quebec-based Lamaque gold project.

As quoted in the press release:

Exploration drilling on the No. 4 Plug has been expanded to a minimum of 12,500 meters with planned depths to reach 1,000 to 1,300 meters. To date 2,685 meters have been drilled in the first two holes.

Integra’s President and CEO, John de Jong said:

The No. 4 Plug, with 46% of the inferred Lamaque Gold Project’s resources, (1,042,258 tonnes averaging 9.43 grams/tonne (“g/t”) Au for 315,975 inferred Au ounces at a 6.14 g/t cut-off) (cut-off based on 1989 gold prices), remains a high priority target for the Company in 2012. Being open in all directions, including at depth, it gives cause to conduct a more aggressive drill program than originally planned for.
