The Golden Arrow project comes with an exploration database, including geochemical sampling and geophysics, as well as more than 190,000ft of reverse circulation and diamond core drilling.

According to the company, a drilling campaign was undertaken on the property’s Gold Coin and Hidden Hill deposits for bulk disseminated mineralisation.

Emgold is planning to expand the project, where multiple exploration targets have been identified, and estimates the potential for high-grade vein mineralisation.

Along with signing a definitive option agreement, the company will carry out equity financing to fund the initial acquisition cost of the property, in order to explore Golden Arrow and other properties.

The LoI also indicates Emgold will have the right to further increase its interest in the property to 100%.
