NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTC PINK:NVGLF) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the finalization of the strategic data analysis (The Data Library Project) by GoldSpot Discoveries Corp. ("GoldSpot") (SPOT
NV Gold's Data Library consists of multiple data compilations, covering Nevada and elsewhere, including extensive proprietary exploration files created by AngloGold, USMX, Canyon Resources and others. Multiple significant regional geological, geochemical, and geophysical exploration programs generated this data, comprised of over 40 years of effort, and at a historical cost in excess of US$20 million.
Goldspot handled the legacy data inventory reviewing 241 file boxes and large numbers of rolled maps that were stored in NV Gold's warehouse in Reno, Nevada. A total of 1,186 individual files were scanned and the georeferenced maps were sorted by their designated county.
Data extracted from the scanned documents included:
- Rock samples;
- Soil (Stream) samples;
- Significant drill hole intercepts;
- Geological maps;
- Geochemical maps;
- Geophysical surveys;
- Interpretive maps; and
- Mineralized trends projected at surface.
One of the most effective data layers for gold targeting is the surface rock samples. GoldSpot evaluated areas peripheral to each anomalous rock sample noting its host, its exploration potential and generating ranked exploration targets. The targets were ranked on the published geology of the areas and on other proprietary criteria.
In total, GoldSpot identified 31 targets which were categorized and ranked, to be evaluated by NV Gold's technical team.
"I am excited about the outcome of this data analysis and the results presented by GoldSpot and their technical team. It has been our plan to get NV Gold's extensive geological databases into a digital format, homogenized and analyzed. The Company now has a cutting-edge advantage over other explorers in Nevada, and NV Gold will look forward to analyzing and potentially to adding new highly prospective properties with discovery potential to our Exploration Pipeline." commented Thomas Klein, VP Exploration of NV Gold.
