Triumph Gold Mobilizes Crew for Phase 1 Drilling on Freegold Mountain Project, YT

Phase 1 drilling is expected to commence on March 27th.  The timing of Phase 1 capitalizes on frozen ground in the Keirsten Zone, which is largely overlain by a swamp.  The frozen ground will allow a drill to be mobilized with minimal environmental impact from road building, or expense from use of a helicopter. It also facilitates early establishment of a camp and crew which will support spring- and summer-long exploration activities, including an additional approximately 16,100 metres of diamond drilling, trenching and geophysical and soil geochemistry surveys.

Tony Barresi, VP Exploration of Triumph Gold Corp., comments: “Phase 1 drilling of the Keirsten Zone demonstrates Triumph Gold’s commitment to test and advance the exploration concept that Revenue and Nucleus are not discrete deposits, but instead they are parts of a five- to six-kilometre-long magmatic-hydrothermal mineralizing system with porphyry and epithermal components. The Keirsten Zone is centred almost exactly between the Revenue and Nucleus deposits and represents a high priority exploration target as a potential core or focus of the broad mineralizing system.”
