About Pamlico
Located 12 miles southeast of Hawthorne, Nevada, the project has excellent access and infrastructure, a mild, year-round operating climate and strong political support from Mineral County, one of the most pro-mining counties in the pro-mining state of Nevada. The Pamlico project covers the historic Pamlico group of mines, as well as the nearby Good Hope, Central, Gold Bar and Sunset mines.
Discovered about 1884, the district rapidly gained a reputation as being one of Nevada’s highest grade districts. Held by private interests for most of its history, the property remains very underexplored in terms of modern exploration with no documented geophysical or soil geochemical surveys and only 103 drill holes totaling 27,838 feet (8,487 meters) scattered across the 1,300 hectare property.
In 2013, the seller permitted and completed a modern, trackless, 188 meter long, 3 X 4 meter decline for test mining of high-grade mineralization they had previously identified by drilling just beyond the current face of the decline. However, they never systematically sampled the decline or drilled in the area of the decline. Newrange Gold acquired the property in July of 2016 when the owner’s failing health forced the sale of the project.
During early 2017, detailed saw cut channel sampling by Newrange discovered mineralization which had not been previously identified consisting of high-grade structurally controlled gold mineralization with grades to 1.5 meters averaging 104.75 grams gold per metric tonne (g/T Au) surrounded by large zones of lower grade disseminated gold mineralization with an apparent true width of at least 75.5 meters averaging 2.92 g/T Au.
