Scorpio Gold (TSXV:SGN) reported an intersection of 12.54 g/t gold over 15.91 meters at the Solberry Satellite Deposit in the Mineral Ridge Project, Nevada – as part of the final results from its 2014 expansion drilling program.
As quoted in the press release:
In addition to reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling on Solberry, two HQ diameter core holes were collared adjacent to RC hole MR14929 to provide detailed geological data in an area of high-grade mineralization. The results from RC hole MR14929 were previously released on June 16, 2014. Core hole MR14985 was drilled vertically to directly twin MR14929, whereas core hole MR14986 was oriented to the west at a -65 degree dip. A very good correlation of results is noted for the twinned holes as follows:

Highlights of the final results from the 2014 expansion drilling on the Solberry deposit include:
- MR14936: 1.65 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 3.05 meters
- MR14939: 3.89 g/t gold over 3.05 meters
- MR14985: 12.54 g/t gold over 15.91 meters
- MR14986: 10.26 g/t gold over 2.65 meters
- MR141134: 1.95 g/t gold over 6.10 meters
